To a Forgotten Dreamer II
#Wss366 (For the new word) #MastoPrompt 8/12
The caravan #halted above Far Karabash.
From Neither Lang’s once verdant hills, they saw the twisted streets of its bazaar.
The camels spat at not having arrived yet and longed for the cooling waters of Minashi-by-the-Sea.
Their drivers silently signed themselves against evil and glanced at the waning stars above. The moon grew dimmer by the hour.
From where they were, they couldn’t see the dust devils dance in Karabash’s haunted streets.
The city’s fireworks no longer bloomed in the even dusk. Its crystal #fruit had ceased singing.
Far Karabash’s dreamer no longer dreamed but slept forever in hushed darkness.
