A painting by Inari Krohn. The edge of a winter forest at night. All the trees are black, except for one small tree adorned with lights. The twinkling snow on the ground and dotted lights on the small tree strive to shine like the stars overhead.
on the darkest night
we see the farthest stars
or we light our own

wow π¦ββ¬β¨οΈ beautiful imagery
blurry photograph of a hand traching out to a star in the night sky
another long night
without you here by my side
so far yet so bright
my little starlight
if only I could take flight
then we'd reunite
right before my eyes
you immaterialize
here comes the sunrise

thank you! fantastic prompt βοΈ
written text: The judge hammers their gavel. Unspoken, "Order in the court." Prosecution takes their seat now that everyone knows where they stand. It is sunset, and the light pours in gold, and they all want to go home. Unspoken, "Let's wrap this up." The defendant awaits sentencing. A moment to determine a lifetime. All statements made and evidence reviewed, there is nothing left but prayer. Echoed, "Not guilty."

did you count your steps?
if not, you must retrace them
ensure they're even
what if? but what if?
better check just to be safe
prevent disaster
again & again
the obsessive compulsive
saves the world in threes
