asakiyume, 
On my travels I came upon an old man in a field, staring up at the sky.
"What do you see?" I asked.
"Today, brightest blue, no clouds. It means come nightfall I'll be able to greet stars located even deep in the heavens."
I stood quietly beside him a few moments more, but his eyes were fixed on the blue bowl above us.
"Are you always here? Don't you get bored?"
He didn't turn his head.
"No, never. This is my calling. I'm #Atlas; I support the heavens with my gaze." #wss366 #microfiction
