Absorbing the Cost…
when the choice is required
and compromise is not an option
do you choose to soothe your own pain?

The wind will not stop sighingas it slides over cold, sullen waters,bending brown marsh grass low,imploring the roaming thrushes—some sharp,...

We have been expecting rain all week. We get the dark clouds over head but no wind came.
The wind came today and brought the rain.

Enjoyed the read!!-

Here, three days of high winds, no rain. But 30 mph plus winds. It’s invigorating, except when you’re trying to sleep and stuff is moving around outside. LOL
Exceptional write, Tim. We all can relate, yet you nailed the descriptive nature of it. Excellent.-

AKA zombies. The world is tuning out more and more. Thankfully we all have us here! In a way, writing makes us leaders. Not followers. By the examples of “life” we bring in.
Awesome write, Tim.-

This is brilliant, my friend. The collision of mathematical or physical terms and the vivid and figurative imagery with many references hauntingly points to the difficulties to explain the inexplicable.
