How to Take a Meteor Shower towel optional First, flatten your back to the Earth, staring ever upward, still and constant. All peripheral view will soon disappear. Eyes falling forth, upon the night sky, the heart pitches forward by free will. The body falls away and the mind dives, landing face-first across a black sea where every meteor is a speeding boat.

Spare and precise, evoking the images needed to give the reader the illusion of involvement. Nicely done.
