This enveloping darkness


This enveloping darkness
November 15th, 2020

I often get inspiration from words or phrases in books and poems.
"The darkness envelops..... " page 369 in The Starless Sea, by Erin Morgenstern

In the light of day
I am many things

A reader of books
A body reflected in a mirror
A traveler to far off places
A collector of things
A teller of stories

Then the night comes
wrapping me in a layer of dark downy plush
stripping the extraneous away
until there is only my shuddering breath
in this enveloping darkness

Very nice. The stillness of night often invokes many sensations as a mind wanders. Even a reflective one.
