The World at Your Feet

You do not need to leave your room. 

Remain sitting at your table and listen. 

Do not even listen, simply wait. 

Do not even wait, be quite still and solitary. 

The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, 

it has no choice, 

it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

Franz Kafka


Writing prompt: At a time when are being once again encouraged, 

or even forced, to stay at home, do the words above say anything to 

you? Sit still, quiet and solitary in your living room and wait .......

What comes to you? What 'rolls in ecstasy at your feet'?
