Turbine


Today's muse: One Word.

Today's word:  Turbine.

Turbine

The constant rotation of our water wheel relationship is both comforting and terrifying. I embrace the reassuring reliability of its monotony, but moments fighting for breath leave me trembling. The inevitable plunges into ice-cold water circle around like a menstrual cycle.


I find myself gulping for air when I surface, praying it all ends before the next turn of the wheel.
