Obscura

~

mist bound, the land reflects the sky

densely hazed the sky in turn 

reflects the land, casting an

occluded pale brittle light,

that worries all above and around,

an unsettled milk hued soft-focus

day, has draped its cape haphazardly

across my panoramic vision,

I am spellbound, bemused, 

cowed and perplexed

hankering for a friendly sign
