Unmoored

The unrooted. The faceless. The darkness without form. Forms without substance. Substrates without purchase. The turmoil throwing her into a state of agitation.

Explicit signs. Signs without meaning. Warning signs. All—a mass of confusion she wallows in—nascent hours at home. An unmoored city.

Cities that will soon drown under surging water. Analogues to the distant cities in dust. Something has to give.

What I’m Reading:
