Feed on Minuscule Things

Gvg3lIVWsAA8pDg.jpg

dainty feet upon compact sand pressure, small but felt by the smaller creatures of the near-deep

they share kinship with Aphrodite but not her form both, born from shell destined to be consumed

like the courtship of Hades and Persephone tides cut existence in two

the warmth of the sun comes with the day-horror of beaks and clam-diggers

until the fickle moon returns the heavy blanket cold, wet, and dark

then the smaller creatures of the near-deep feed on even more minuscule things

No, we did not make it to the coast and Vancouver, hopefully next time, but pretty close on our Summer road trip. Not seaside and the Pacific Ocean, but definitely lake and pool side. The lake in question being the Okanagan. After the somewhat stressful, if beautiful drive through the Rocky Mountains, we arrived at our finals destination, the Summerland Hotel and Resort. Now it was just time to relax, get a tan, and detox the driving stress a way. My travel companions got ambitious, on the other hand, they'd been cooped up in the car went biking, swimming, and kayaking, but moi ... outside of some light splashing around in the pool and walk into town for sushi, I was content to lounge in the July sun and enjoy the sauna until dinner time and winetime. I told myself that I was exercising with my body working at regulating temperature swings, and I would be happy for the color and vitamin D from the sun. a luxury hotel ... well luxury for me ... was a wonderful end to the road trip. Thanks for reading along if you have bee:) ![GwUwE7RWsAAgENP.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/prydefoltz/EpXHYtrQSLdFw4n4ejUCJN6Mp48RYpNdz3w6Fw8FrZJgQhEv4sFVHPr78AdWN1r3ubK.jpg) # Intoxicated By Scent ![Gvg0b7UX0AAba_W.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/prydefoltz/Eoe8iCLDHDRZYvfsU6KnDD3WmmnDxCsqVSWe84SznRtBarWU5CxrNrYaSF3zxtj3G18.jpg)
within the folds shadow holds supremacy hue is distorted the prismatic muted the minute earthbound pollinator wingless, short-sighted immersed in scent fumbles by feel there is no need to differentiate shades register chromatic outliers the world is small life is short purpose, one-dimensional reproduce keep it all going abstraction and complexity only adds difficulty distraction threat the Lilliputians see in broad strokes restrain giants tie down those who would fly belittle those that reveal perspective would uncover the bigger picture the colony is sustained within the folds in shadow intoxicated by scent ![Gvg1aUxWoAADbfO.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/prydefoltz/23xVEdaRzFfXFCMGhrCCKPoY3DryCtmtSbXPXbRKat27gVpJdZ1iQg5FCDW4cdk3PBJbq.jpg) *** # Silver Moments
