A young man
takes a walk in the country
and sees an older man
staring into a field
He asks the older gentleman
if he needs anything.
The old man says he briefly saw a citadel
over there
but didn't want to elaborate.
Then the young man saw it briefly.
They both sat on a rock
and stared into the field.
Soon, there were hundreds of men, women,
animals and creatures from all walks of life
from every possible planet, every possible time, sitting on rocks,
politely conversing,
Nobody understanding how they can communicate,
or why they saw what they did.
The citadel was upside down in the sky, with water above it, sky below,
if above and below are even apt description in a topsy turvy situation like this.
All agreed that everything was so peaceful here,
in this land where the everything meets the nothing.
No time, no hunger, no desires. No worries.
So there they sat, waiting for the next time it appeared, if you can call it the next time in a place with no beginning or end.
A place with no needs to be met.
