Skimming

SKIMMING surface like glass tight thin ice below a whirlpool pulls in too deep an elapsed Soul skimming the face of words left in neutral swirl vortex shallow low down beneath Scroll throwaway pointless empty Hollow © Kim van Breda—17 January 2016

So enjoyed this, Kim. What a gift. Trying to connect with a few old friends after a prolonged absence.
