about

From Will Long

The sun hung over the rounded edges of the sandstone hills, glowing in yellow. The red clay bottom of the pool cast the water in a deep orange, small patches of white sage and lavender grew in clumps near the crevices, attaching themselves to the available dirt hiding beneath the sand. A subtle wind lapped against the water, reflecting the dying hues of the day. Waiting for time to pass, I leaned up from leaning on the sandy ground against a charcoal rock, squinting at the sunlight as it folded over the sleepy afternoon. There were still several weeks here, so there's time.

The sun was too high to be visible, but the sunset makes new reflections. From under the cliff, the pool, about 20 yards wide, looked almost flat against the horizon. The shore was strewn with the same soft pebbles and yellowing sand as a dried beach, and on the east end was a cave, completely hidden from the hills and open prairie above. In the shadows there below. You could imagine such a place from above, riding by, or passing on the road.

Feeling the night wind start blowing in from the mountains to the west, their caps dipped in snow, and their bodies glowing in blue, there was only a sound brimming up. Climbing up, and stopping near the edge, we listen. Nothing seemed to move, only drops occasionally falling into the pool below from the natural well, starting somewhere into the blackness at the back of the cave.

Eventually, the sun dissipates, the red glow receded, and fell over the faces of the dusty hills as the stars began to show.
