3WW – dainty-haunting-tantalise
Dedicated to all suffering in Japan.
*
Contrary to all we feel,
the Earth is dainty –
you see cars chucked aside by water,
as if small shells before the wave we make by hand.
–
Fractured images are haunting
filling us with awe.
We pause.
They don’t.
Tantalising our mind
regarding what will be.

Крехка е земята, противно на познатото.
От снимки ни преследва този страх,
че утре няма.
–
Частични образи ни карат да замлъкнем,
докато те крещят.
Умът застива без да знае
какво ще бъде.

Good job with that prompt. I gave up on that word combination. 🙂
Madeleine – thanks a lot! In fact, my initial thoughts went more to the love and erotic direction (quite understandably), and I was reluctant to go there. So, in a way, I had secretly abandoned that combination. And then… I am very sad that it was such a disaster that inspired a totally new perspective. Tnanks for reading and commenting!
