The Cave Part 11
Darkness, and the countless points of light, as if the entire void beyond was filled with the fire of a million stars. I felt as if I was staring into the eternity of a night sky beyond those wooden doors, the place beyond the actual reality, while I stood behind a curtain of scenery, the mountain and sky a mere pretense. And in that void beyond of unfathomable space, there hung suspended a mighty shard of crystal floating in place, with hundreds of a far smaller chunks orbiting around it in balanced but intersecting circles, no two in the same path. These caught the light from the center, and sparkled with inner fire each.

Exactly! Well done.
I love this, especially the enjambment on the second line! Great poem!
Nice work. Very creative and could read over and over for motivation.
Ahhh, that was so deep! Loved your Senryu!
Yes, and never discount the reading as a way to bring new meaning to your writing.
it's interesting to think of "creating new meaning" as a goal of writing!
