Some curious, gorgeous lines here, Victor.

"...whispered into his own ear..."

"...laid down next to river, and cried."

"The day ripened the city..."

"None of this is true. None of this is false, either."

"...And so on, story within story, love within love, year within year..."

petalous! ( thanks for the new addition to my vocabulary)

Thanks Sharron! MS Word complained at me about petalous, but I told it to keep quiet :) Glad you enjoyed it!

What a twisty ride through reflection! I’m simultaneously awed and coughing up embarrassment for how much of myself I saw in this piece.

Yes, Nicole. A twisty one, indeed :) I too see myself there, can’t help it I suppose. Thanks for reading and dropping a comment. Much appreciated!
