Summary: This has been in my WIP folder for a while. Keep going back to it and can't figure out how to improve it. Suggestions always welcome.




I had been travelling
for quite some time,
and had reached a point
where I could look back
with calmness.
I couldn’t see the future
because that, you can never see,
so I was suspended where I was.

And the world took on
a very different complexion
call it an epiphany -
what you will -
it was there, nevertheless.

And so here I am,
gladly suspended
in the here and now.
