what is something that sounds like water?
what is something that sounds like riverbed moss on your feet?
what sounds like a large snowflake landing on your hair?
what sounds like driving through the desert at sunset?
can you go somewhere with it?
does it take you away?
does it dissolve time?
does it reach into unknown parts of you?
do you feel it running all over your body?
is it the gust of air on a cold night or a warm bath after a long day?
what are you dreaming? what are you seeing inside?
does it feel like a deep breath or a sigh caught in your throat?
is it a gut punch or are you fluttering, bubbling until you’re full to the brim?
a faded memory or a visceral moment?
is it the excitement of someone new or the hollowness they left behind?
are you surrounded or alone in space?
