Spirited Away
lift meover the mountain
above the dark forest
where roads thin to veins
so far above
my blood becomes raindrops
my vision
a blinding orb of sunlight
piercing the enormous cloud

over the mountain
above the dark forest
where roads thin to veins
so far above
my blood becomes raindrops
my vision
a blinding orb of sunlight
piercing the enormous cloud
An experiment in life: notes from the endless stream...
