Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

Wearing her best dress to church, Serendipity tossed dark curls at Andrew.

He smiled. She smiled back. "How old are you?"

"14. Vampires only count centuries          —          Look into my eyes; see my vast past; the path of your new future."


Original 68 words:

Serendity wore her best dress to church on her birthday. She flaunted her dark curls at a young man in the back corner pew.

He smiled. She drew closer, squinting her eyes. "How old are you?"

"Vampires only count the centuries. Single digits means you're still young. Are you a teenager yet? Look into my eyes and see my vast past... and the short path of your future."
