The Last Hundered Miles

Floating in a void of fearless fatigue, hurling headlong into the infinite blackness beyond. Body still, gaze locked, fingers adjusting infinitesimally the delicate balance between speed and direction. Meaningless music merges with mind-numbing monotony. Signs and stripes blur into glowing apparitions, melted by the miles burning away beneath me.

Mist-cloaked midnight browns to bluish-orange. Suddenly, a sea of scintillating lights splits apart the inky veil...

A city!

The city.

My city.

Home.
