QUIESCENCE !

The brake lights were swallowed up in the darkness and quietude started to crinkle proclaiming over the resonating beats of his heart. Earlier that day he packed all his avidities, affairs and fiends into boxes perfectly placed on the truck.

He gave away everything that used to define him, things he used to refer to as his calling , all that he has been living for. Emptiness, a clean slate, a proverbial state of being was what he thrived.

Cloaked by nothingness; a new pleasure was created and put into a first trial and as he was lighting a cigarette in the Hades of night, an angel and a devil came rushing towards his place, fighting each other over his new invented bliss; one crying it is a sin while the other shouting it is a virtue.

Lost in the smoke forming in front of his eyes, he couldn’t care less.
