eliot saw it
those who lived after the fact
who died in their minds
and breathed in their memories
for those who saw colour in the past
and vividness in the future,
the monochrome of the present
only brought a sense of loss
to be in the now
to taste the infinitely tiny
particles of air at the moment
they touched aveoli
to have skin shock electric
with the gentle touch
of wind in flight
and after no memory
eliot saw it
though they could only
reminisce and ponder
on it, after the fact

I really love this.
As for Everest....hmmm, it's much more exciting climbing hills and mountains than walking on the flat, you'll be just fine Camille xx
Thanks, Isabelle.
And yes, Everest is certainly more exciting even if it does involve intermittent intellectual frost-bite.
This is great info to know.
