The Gentle Keeper of the Evening Star

I guard the stars—and the bullet that waits for the end.

Once, they prayed to me for safe passage through the dusk. Now, they forget I exist. But I remain. I tend my apartment, I watch the sky, and I keep the moon-silver bullet ready—because someone must. My sisters sleep or argue, but I sit by the window, patient, waiting. It’s not about thanks. It’s about watching.

What I'm Into: the scent of old tea leaves, moon-silver bullet, my sisters' arguments, the liminal hour, celestial cannon maintenance
