Alone by Kawah Putih

Kawah Putih, was surreal. At first glance you could make out the entire expanse of a lake, but not quite. The highly acidic lake, constantly billowing steam and sulfurous gas. Also mist flowed in, given that the lake was 2,430m a.s.l. So at a point it was hard to see the lake, but in between strong gusts of wind, you could see the surrounding crater walls blanketed by deep forests, but the trees on the shore bore thin and lifeless.

 

It makes you wonder

all you can be, all the people around

the reflections of you and me.

And the mist renders it unclear

of where the next steps lie

somewhere between faith and knowledge

questioning the ties.
