In 2015, news outlets reported a floating city in the skies above China. It's just clouds, they said.

 

Breakout

By: Karen Hecht Springer

February 16, 2016

 

Azure shot through with jagged mottled gray

As buildings burst out of the sky

A floating city

We’re peaking at another universe

Somewhere, a civilization chooses

To no longer be confined

They are now visible

The dam is broken

It’s time

It’s time

And now

They can see so clearly

As the parallels intersect, twist, relax

Become one straight line that leads the way

Conduits between dreams and reality collide

With the beauty

Of knowing

Of unity

Of oneness so sure and true

And there is no possible other

They try to tell us finite laws

Are why we coexist in separate peace

It’s just to keep the truths hidden

There’s darkness and clouds for a reason

But when there’s a will there’s a way

I certainly imagined floating cities as I read. Yes I also believe that we can rise to the occasion.
