Gaze

Postby tawnycatz » Mon Apr 02, 2018 1:11 pm

▶ You notice a large feline with two notches in its ear while out in the forest. It's almost difficult to look at, being somewhat hazy around the edges- like it isn't all there. At times, it almost appears to flicker. Yet everything around you is fine; the birds are still singing, taking no notice of the large predator. Curious, you slowly approach the cat.

▶▶ It turns its head toward you. Too many eyes cover it's face in an asymmetrical pattern. One side of the animal's mouth appears to be drooping, the canine crooked. While you don't know how you know, you are certain that it is not from an injury. It is simply how the being is.

▶▶▶ You finally look the creature in it's eyes, a surprisingly difficult task. Suddenly, and without warning, you are not here. You are somewhere else entirely, somewhere you could not have seen on your own. The only thing here is the feline, and around you, a void. The trees, the twigs, the ambient sounds of birdsong all missing. Below you, nothing; yet still you stand. You look the animal back in it's eyes. Somehow, you see more than what is here. You see more than what you can truly see.

▶▶▶▶ There is the ocean violently beating against the mud-colored cliffs; the scent of an oncoming storm is clear to you. You turn your head- no, not your head- to the sky. It is now when you realize that you are truly above it all. The clouds, only slightly above you, crackle with charged energy that you could not hear normally. It was not the sound of the lightning, of the sparks, but the energy itself- the pure power emanating it. You could feel the power of those waves churning below you, yet you were not touching them. Something told you that if you did, you would still feel nothing. But the energy, the power, you can feel that, see that. You are a being of energy. Not there, not physically.

▶▶▶▶▶ You are abruptly shoved back into your own realm, suddenly aware. You can feel the sheer power of the trees around you, of the tiniest organisms below; you turn to the feline, who stands there, still silent. It is a creature of pure energy. You are a creature of nature. You know where each organism is, and it is not nearly as overwhelming as one might think. The feline has shown you what you are. Perhaps, it will show someone else the same.


Hi I just wanted to write something for this doodle! I know the story thing doesn't make sense but I got carried away tbh
