Title Tale | WS

Wilting; to feel the effects of fatigue, or to feel exhausted. Wilting is also usually pertaining to the diminishing of life, or size. Happens to flowers that are given little light, water, or care. What about people? What do we really need before we begin to wilt?
The Sky; blank of heaven forever over and around us. Humans haven't been able to find the edge of it yet. It just continues, and within it life ends and begins to every level. Stars cause mass destruction. If there is a super nova in deep space, does it make a sound?
Can something so vast as the sky and heavens, something that houses life and death to every degree, wilt? Can the sky being to wilt? If so, what happens?

I think the sky can begin to wilt. It's all connected to our imagination. When you look into the sky what do you see? I usually see blue, a cloud, or a sunset. Beyond that? I see dual stars wrapping around each other and a chaotic mix of dust and planets fighting around them. I see enormous, solar system scale, clouds of colored dust. The bending of time as a star exhales for the final time. And then what? I'm not sure.. So, tell me, does the sky end where my imagination ends? It has too. With that theory in mind, ask yourself when the sky ends.

I feel many humans have lost a sense of imagination. Years ago we were going to start colonies on Mars to develop its atmosphere for human life but then our imagination shrunk and excluded that. The more the human race pulls back into their our reclusive selves the smaller the world becomes and the sky wilts. Wilting sky.
