Article 1: The Fog of Now

——

This circle

The path is narrow
Winding down
Though the mist
To the river below
Water is cold, deep, and dark
Yet unseen
Peering ahead
For the sudden turn
On the edge
Of the drop
To the river below
Rock and water wait unseen
As a ghost
Almost there
Slips away
And is gone
Without sound
Every step
Closed in from behind
This circle
All that is known
And beyond
What is not

Author’s note:
Forward into the Mist / I was thinking of years ago riding down a narrow road to a narrow bridge, crossing the river at night, in the fog. How all you are aware of is that tiny area around you that moves with you as you slowly move ahead.
James Anderson
