Prompt from Irene's (here)
stillness distance secrecy darkness
enigma (someone difficult to understand or explain)
mystery,,shadow
opacity (the quality of being opaque)
absence withdrawal erasure encryption
What of it!
A stillness in the distance
Secrecy in the approaching darkness
A being and its enigma
Entangled and overlooking
a ravine of mystery
Not in any way camouflaged
in shadows of opacity
In the absence of an explanation
or withdrawal of visual evidence
much less an erasure of encryption
What of it!
Manifestation of a yearning
Lately known to be lethal
and fatal
Not a selfie apparently
Better not!
For MLMM's Photo Challenge #63
Irene's Orange is a Fruit and
Kerry's Tuesday Platform at Real Toads
Lethal yearning can be, especially in a selfie lol
ReplyDeleteGood modern piece good sir! #selfie
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderfully intriguing piece :D
ReplyDeleteI feel that Narcissus has been reborn again.. the danger lies exactly there.
ReplyDeleteSuspenseful - until the relief in the decision: Better not!
ReplyDeleteBut sometimes there is great truth in darkness! For you know to expect the shadows.
ReplyDeleteWould be the last selfie ever taken.
ReplyDeleteNice prompt mashup. :)
ReplyDeleteThat ravine of mystery is an excellent image!
ReplyDeleteYour opening line is intriguing, an interesting way to hook the reader. The reference to the selfie at the end is very much on point.
ReplyDeleteyearning is the root of all desires
ReplyDeleteNo! Better not take a selfie from this angle ;-)
ReplyDeleteLooking out into a ravine certainly is opposite of a selfie...
