The sun has turned the sky white and made all outlines sharp. Seeking out the shadows it lingers in all the dark corners and cold spots. The dark forbidden place of mushrooms brightens, the snake sleeps in the plain sight, the Black Widow has left her home, the Hibiscus opens bows its head then folds into death. The crow’s laughter fills the air. In the back room the shade is pulled but around the edges and through the tiny pin prick of a whole in the middle the sun beams exposing a dust ball in the corner and a stain on the carpet in the middle of that perfect pink rose. |
