In my mind’s eye I saw myself walking down a grey road

In my mind’s eye

I saw myself walking down a grey road

Not really there

No landscape 

No background

A solitary figure

Not a stick figure, but something close to that

A sort of ephemeral appearance

Not quite there

A shape, a shadow

Walking through this empty space

As he went he dropped pieces of himself

Or they shed off of him

Like flakes

Floating behind

Then a strange feeling came over me

Like I was floating

Everything seemed to shimmer

Myself and the world

And it was all the same
