This Moment

This moment like dank cellar air is motionless except to pass the senses as saturated air rolls over skin as lungs draw in odour rich in permanence the soundscape is silenced save the pulsing from within this moment is forever forever motionless

Howdy Maureen. I went fishing and found this one. I can't say "a happy read" for there seems to be something foreboding, but your wording certainly captures the moment. Thanks

Hello Maureen. This is an entry that should be read out loud with emphasis. I found this original. Well done

A little cryptic, a little mysterious, rich in inducing wonder. Indeed, an interesting moment. John
