Written for dVerse Prosery: A View from the Hills.
Our host, Sanaa, asks us to write a piece of prosery
of up to 144 words, including the line shown below.
This is where the prompt took me.
โThe hills so dry, so dense the underbrush, that
where I pushed my way the giant hush was changed
to soft explosions.โ From the poem โOn a View of
Pasadena from the Hillsโ by Yvor Winters.
