Gray


A swollen mass of clouds conceals the peak. When the mountain is masked this way, I feel a kinship to her. I want to retreat behind clouds.

The peaks generate their own atmosphere. Clouds mass around the summit -- I imagine the silent roil of the mist and wish I could be up there, enveloped, hidden.
