Etched In Grey
by Alira Cohen Her fascination never wavered In the otherwise pale blue walls Of a memory that had Recently come to life. While she was pulled to her feet, She watched them struggling, Reaching for another link In a cluster of rusted chains That somehow promised something. Her eyes were ever-faltering, Trying to follow his every movement, Trying to breathe freely the open water Without catching it deep in her lungs. She was a robotic face, Nothing but a semi-mechanical Fixture stood still and slowly withering, While he was something stranger, Something made from flesh and bone, Something to behold, something to be feared. And though the joints had been frozen solid, They seemed to move for her now. She followed closely behind Fearing and hoping he Would make her flesh and bone some day. © 2022 AliraAuthor's Note
