~ tension swirled tornado style within the confine of a judicial chamber parties argued in the din and slow steady breathing found one plaintiff barely able to see walls meet blue eyes fell into a fixed gaze voices drifting on waves of blue-green carried a body without substance across golden fields darting sparrows altered the sky creating patches of shadow and cloud then turning and switching pace uniform movements seemed military and precise still, an ethereal accused traveled wide skies watching rooftops pass and fade into horizon then the deserts and forests came and went sea’s followed and disappeared back in the barren walled room raised voices told tales of chairs electrically charged a lifetime of punishment for a moment of indiscretion these noises found a smile as heaven had been found and was internal. /
