Falling
I take a step forward and feel nothing under my feet. Spreading my wings, like a bat in the night, I feel the cool upward draft. My wet clothes cling to my body, they don't want to let me go. I open my eyes. It's still dark, of course. It's only the moon shining above … Continue reading Falling

An empty vase
