Goosedown
lazy fall and
flutter
twirling
spiraling
earth-
ward
heedless of
phones’ sudden
synchronous
jarring
alarms.
Placid
flurry
passing
sooner
than ratcheted
pulses,
adrenaline
pumped.
Passing
sooner
than
over-
stated
“squall”.

Super trippy text layout, but I like it! 😎👌
Thank you kindly. I hoped to convey — visually — the slow, haphazard fall of a single flake of snow during a flurry. I drew inspiration from Lewis Carroll’s poem, “The Mouse’s Tale” 🙂
