No no this is not a chimney. And not a smoke stack. Not of any sort.
What are you thinking? Don't jump. No need to jump. Not tonight, not tomorrow.
See my flicker? My steady flame? I am here to show you, I and the moonlight,
that despite the chill of a hazy night
that bridge beckons.
What's the harm?
Even maps can take you the wrong way, you know.
Sometimes you might as well use the light
Where and how you find it.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteyes, we all need that little flickering light...xx

I like the ending lines very much Yes, light is often more reliable than maps. Love that play on illumination.
ReplyDeleteRather poignant given the recent suicide of Ridley Scott's brother this week. I guess it depends upon which light you follow.
ReplyDeleteHells, somehow I think the right light makes itself known
DeleteLove always
