What do you see when you close your eyes?
This piece can be about anything. Just tell us what it is that you see when you close your eyes. Have fun with it and explore yourself!
The Illusion of Grandeur
I'd like to say that I see a whole new entity of my own design... populated with the most complex of characters ever seen, in a setting of hither to unknown dimension, & varied natural formation; cityscapes that beguile & intrigue just in their very own description...
But that's not it. I close my eyes and see... as if an empty auditorium... with some dark silent proscenium... A shady atmosphere of baited-breath-anticipation, & my own growing corner-to-corner apprehension... what is to appear? There is nothing here.
Then suddenly... rapidly approaching distant footsteps... anxious whispers... something behind the scenes. A heavy curtain of responsibility... suggesting this very next moment...
is entirely up to me
