An eternity at the infield—fiftywords story

ficciones (54)in #fiftywords • 6 years ago (edited)

I’m trapped at the infield. Kafkian time issues must have arisen, since the ball is travelling through air never reaching my glove. I feel might last forever, although happened just milliseconds ago...

Those moments when I explored the big fields are now far away; I hope time recovers its joint.

I love science fiction... Bending time in the infield is cool. I can picture that ball just creeping toward the glove...

I love space-time paradoxes! Would have liked to focus a little more on the infinite path that the ball must travel before reaching the glove, but the fifty words got me!

Glad you liked it! Thanks for reading!

Se siente nostalgia en las letras, por un pasado que regresa...

Quise dibujar una paradoja temporal; en la cual lo que, teóricamente, solo fueron milisegundos, tiene la apariencia de una eternidad. Despertando incluso la nostalgia de tiempos pasados y lejanos. Thanks for the comment!!!

Glad you liked it @jayna ! I love Kafka... I wanted to draw that moments in life when you suddenly feel something strange and think: "Hmm... something kafkian is happening" He, he, I am joking :)
