ten thousand seconds



Your suns burnt eons long -
using skies as focal points

while I tipped,
off balance;

with $2 candles for daylight.

Author notes

Prompt::
"finespun are fate's lines
never diminutive;
though sometimes -
short" - Mark Griffin


I counted "$2" as one word...
And this is poop... again

    Your authors notes sound so much like me

    I can't seem to get any satisfaction from what I write lately ... but I have to say your "poop" is far, far better than mine

    Congrats on Gold
