Over the shoulders of green hills...
-(Recklessly destined for the lake at our backs)-
...Pewter clouds somersault by.
Intercepting our line of sight,
From cumulous fists of whiteness,
This head-over-heel weather begs a question-
Are we under a Northeast Kingdom sky?

really like some of the language and imagery that you used here. it sounds nice and picturesque and yet a bit apocalyptic as well with backdrop hills waiting to sink into lakes and so on. what's a northeast kingdom sky? a reference to vermont? love the cloud imagery, especially "cumulous fists of whiteness." i'm always trying to come up with new ways to describe clouds - well done. i might partially highjack that phrase for a scene in "cecil bellows" which i'm presently working on.
ReplyDeleteThanks, man....yeah, that's a reference to Vermont. Hijack all you'd like and take this plane for a ride....
