tidal

it comes and goes in waves that wash up the shores according to invisible tides. a slow sucession of highs and lows, dry and wet, air and water. two sides of the same world. a seemingly constant cycle never to be broken. until the day comes and a larger satellite obscures the gravitacional pull. changing the balance of forces and rewiring the strings that are being pulled in the background, away from prying eyes.
that day is upon us. contrary to geological and physical principles and against the deeply rooted dogmas, a large mass has sprung from within. gaining the momentum of life and embedded with sheer resilience, it has broken through and stopped the tidal mechanism governing the interacting landscapes. from now on, a steady and predictable course has been set. from which there will be no deviations.
