FINITE

a mindful watch 

lounges immanence

simple measure

across the diamond sky

stars fall

remarkable moves 

visible light

blinding silent

narration is the shimmer 

impressions exhibit 

touch battered and savage

Wow, this is like a very compact version of someones life being highlighted, as if looking over you but not interacting at all, and simply coming down to the end of the rope, almost like a funeral, but the more I read the more ways I find to interpret it as it raises questions.
Another interpretation was like a tactician waiting patiently on the right time to strike in wartime,
or making you think on how long are you going to wait around before you try to achieve something with you life.
Love the word selection, but more than that I really love how each line contradicts or just counters the other, it's like literally looking at opposites attract and just working well together. Lovely work.

Time can take one for a ride of a life time - literally and your words capture the essence of divine presence in good and difficult times...supreme words :)

life on hold, quarantined and restricted. we are reduced to living through what we hear and see from the media. from the title, there is an end. such a surreal piece ... :)

The many millions of lights of people alive with nowhere to go, such difficult times as we all try to cope with this pandemic ;- Nicely expressed. So much of the city is alive within the shadows.
