Evokes a blank.
Plunging into another world,
I live in memories where
decrepit cobbled streets flutter with people.
I breathe cigarette plumes,
dusty clouds.
Droplets pulsating against my face.
I drink scalding chocolate, milky swirls create
lines. Ink drenching pages
form unwritten rules.
Here mannequin statues ride
hollow trains
to clock towers rippling in an endless sky.

I pause time.
I paused time.

Clock towers rippled.
In an endless sky
here, mannequin statues rode hollow train lines.
Ink-drenched pages.
Formed unwritten rules.
I drank scalding chocolate, milky swirls created
droplets pulsating against my face.
I breathed cigarette plumes.
Dusty clouds, decrepit.
Cobbled streets fluttered with people.
I lived in memories where
Plunging into another world
Evoked a blank.
