Shimmering

Dark Veil

Shimmering

Distant shimmer.
Dark shimmering 
veil.
Barely
discernible.
Distant, 
dark.
Distant dark
fog slowly
approaching.
Slowly enlarging.
Slow darkening.
Ever present.
Encroaching.
More visible.
Always more
visible.
Arrival.
Shimmering
dark veil.
Arrival.
Slowly envelopes
Slowly absorbs.
Moving through,
past fades.
Fades to
nothingness.
Fades
to black.
Behind
no more.
Moving through
dark
shimmering.
Dark veil.
What was
is
no more.
What’s new
arrives!
