A Sicilian Song

by lilly-gibbons

Clouds parting, dark, the world begins to take shape. Puffed up, longing to show their fluffy side, we lament. The web of stars shine, disconnected patterns fading. The background, a foreground for curiosity. A horizon sits quietly, gently caressing the coastline. It takes centre stage. A coast hugging the archways, ominous, renewed. Now filled with life we walk, invited. A hum of scooters guides us down a winding corridor of road. We gain momentum, marching towards the sea. Cars break, beep, whizz; a melody for our route. Disassociated with emotion, only impulse moves us now. Reactions slow, we salute the passersby. Don't accelerate, ignore if you must.
