I'm finishing up essay 2 of four, all of which are due on Wednesday (yikes!).
I took a break. I went outside.
The moon is full, making the cloudscape glow an inverted grey. One cloud cupped the moon, so that its luminous outline glowed like the silhouette of a child's balloon. I thought about reaching for the string and riding it into the sky.
An acorn dropped from a tree somewhere in the distance. I know because it was so quiet that I heard it crash against the grass as it landed.
Tread softly.
