In thirty years, Nineveh Cruise Lines have never had an accident. Their record has nothing to do with perfect design or management, though. Instead, a random passenger is chosen before the ship #embarks, and after this “Jonah” quietly disappears, safe travels are ensured.

Autumn rolls in on a chariot of fog
Summer #embarks in a squall,
carried off to bide time with Spring
Winter waits patient as death.

She waves off the penultimate flight vanishing into the clouds. So many teary farewells and homecomings at these gates. She's never ascended—too afraid to fly. But life has gotten lonely; she longs for her people on the other side. The gates open. Wings spread, she #embarks on her next life. #vss365
