Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

Three racoons

The Ayes have it

Yes, yes, yes,
can you guess
by looking in their eyes?
Which said yes
and which said yes
and which yes yes was which?

All dressed in grey,
all dressed to play,
all eyes said aye,
all ayes, no noes, no nays.
All eyes now look at you,
those eyes that have a nose.

Behind black masks
they want to ask,
their noses point at you-know-who!

But — they do not ask.
They stare and stare,
all six eyes,
behind their masks,
now looking straight through you.

Yes, yes, yes.
The answer's always yes.
The question is up to you.

In the year 2021, or later, your character(s) will discover / see / learn something which puts them in danger. Luckily, your character has an escape plan in mind - a specific place in time PRIOR to the year 2000.

THE DETAILS:
1) Write a short story about a character, or characters, who travels back to a time before the year 2000 to escape something or someone from their present. Their "present" may be any year from 2021 into the distant future.

2) Why does your character need to escape, and what is the reasoning behind choosing that specific point in time to arrive?

3) How is your character prepared for jumping into the timeline at this point? What unexpected challenges might they face? Will the future follow them to the past?

4) The inner workings and physics behind your modum onerariis - be it phone booth, wristwatch, druid stones, or DeLorean - need not be explained, but please do let us know what it is.

Entries must:
* be submitted in bitem format in the forum below no later than 11:59 pm (WdC time) on July 31st, 2021
