Step outside and smell the cold a sugary pendant in each nostril... and the billion stars like ice pins in a liquorice sky. Breathe the silence and enjoy its brittle velvet, just in case tomorrow all is unzipped and showy shards swift as starlings unsettle what you know
A sugary pendant in each nostril! Your imagery is so precise, it is sublime!
