Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go. So make the best of this test and don't ask why. It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.

A reflection.
On a dusty surface.
Swiping on black, spider webs.
Wiping on shimmery, ashes.
Curved lips in ruby, red.
Brown ovals, lined with dark marks.
