Her clock is uncanny.
It does not stop after finding time-stamps on all eternal promises, and on animated blemishes caused by dead wounds.
It stops when she seeks answers that faded into a thousand light-years, locked with shattered lies and amnesic anticipations.

This is a fabulous phrase: “time-stamps on all eternal promises.” Nice job with the prompt! Thanks for linking up.
Thank you, Christine, for reading and for creating this great challenge. Yes, sadly eternal promises come with time-stamps. Such is life.
“…amnesiac anticipations.” I love your words and the photo.
Thank you, Joanne, for reading and your comment. I felt that anticipations are mostly amnesic yet we don’t stop believing in them. 🙂
Love that picture and your word choices. Very intricate. That amnesia trick. Yes, memory is a funny thing! Great job!
Luckily I had a photograph to go with the words I chose. Thank you, Gina, for the visit and your words. Yes, those amnesic waits always forget their ways to return.:)
Nice. 🙂
Yay! Thank you. 🙂
I like to think every woman’s clock is uncanny and unmistakable.
wonderful wording to take on the prompt.
I agree with you, Kir. Thank you for the visit and the comment.I loved writing a few words about that uncanny and perfect clock. Expressing in 42 words was challenging, I remembered Trifecta and how last time I wrapped my thoughts in 33 words. No matter how many words I have they always seem less.
Faded answers, the eternal quest.
Yes, some answers are lost far or hidden beneath unexciting questions that we selectively forget. Yet some of us keep trying to locate those answers everywhere. Thank you for the visit and sharing your thoughts.
The best response to the prompt.!! Great work!

That’s true, Justine. It takes more time too. Thanks a bunch. 🙂

Beautiful 42 words, Archi:)
Thank you, Vishal. Glad you found them beautiful. 🙂
Archita, that’s a mesmerizing read, hit all my sleeping clocks. You play with words so well and so thoughtfully
That’s so nice to hear. 🙂 Crafting with less words is more fun! 🙂 Thank you, Ree.
