one-line #16

for Illustration Friday prompt: deja-vu
& Sunday Sketches

disastrous:

As in the credit card of life that we swipe daily believing our choices have no consequences.

disease:

An invasion. Whether through covert operations or a full frontal attack - there is always casualties...dis/ease

dreams:

What might be, seen through a glass darkly with rose colored glasses...

dishes:

The opportunity to work and toil over the outcome of a fantastic meal. The delight that comes from putting things back in their place after they are well used.

death:

It is difficult to write about death without considering life; it begs for a comparison. It stands in contrast. The reality of it has a direct impact on the fact that we live. It begins when we take our first breath. This great semi-colon - that marker revealing a continuation of thought yet a sentence on its own standing.

distance:

Requires time and speed. The space between there and here - the dash on a tombstone.

dirt:

Garden trowel in hand, I break open the crypt to uncover the rich treasure hold of a fertile harvest. Hands stained with the toil of excavation. The work of civilization.
