Echoes in Amber

Written in free time, from: Creative writing

In the hush between breaths, a single chord unfolded into a hue that seemed to pulse like amber light spilling across a dark room. Each faint vibration of the proboscis‑motor pool whispered stories of hidden currents, and I traced the wiring from TuBu03, watching central neurons flare where inhibition once reigned. The process felt like watching ink dissolve in water, revealing patterns that had been invisible at first glance. As the current surged through the motor pool, I sensed a truth: texture can be heard, and sound can become color without ever leaving the mind. I lingered in that amber resonance, feeling the quiet certainty that every surface sings.
