Mystery doesn't quite capture. Nor does nightmare. Nor does vision. Mountain? Somewhat. Valley? Also, somewhat. Canyon? Grand, but still somewhat. Volcano? Closer. The molten core that occasionally reaches the surface? Closer. The sun? Yes. Always distant, but constantly emitting heat and light. Bright, warm. Too much burns. Too close, evaporates. Too far, bright but cold. Just right, never. Quenched, never. Shielded, never enough, easily too much. Noontime, dangerously hot. Midnight, savagely missed. Dawn, thaw awake. Twilight, teasingly lingering, beckoning to follow, rapid cooling. Brightness fades. Sometimes heat lingers uncomfortably, longingly embraced.
