Mist

Mist is all around.

Cloaking the mint green trees

in shrouds of vapour

and pixelised leaves

programmed to fall at precise

irregular intervals.

Lily pads, floating

on a secret lake of LEDs,

surrounded by synthetic

strands of dew damp grass.

A throbbing heart and a half

dragging away fingers

Select.

Save

Quit.

Uncurl from a cramped chrysalis,

to find the musky car is

surrounded by blobs of rain

and peppered with drizzle.
