Obi Land

"Shadow"

Shadow…
Red shadow.
Shadows filled with blood.

Dripping, dripping,
Slowly falling to the ground.
The thick liquid, beautiful and terrible simultaneously.
It smells of copper…tastes like coins.

It engulfs me,
Engulfs us.

Small creatures swarm through it,
traveling on shadows
because they can live no other way.
Drop, drop, drip, drop.
It falls rhythmically…

Why is it…
Why is it I am the
only one
who can see it?
