Day 1270, sides.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1270.jpg

The road

is not lit

by the light

but by the darkness

on its sides

Day 1269, where.

Day's pictures, Poetry

DSCF0735.jpg

Are you left out?

Stayed behind?

Or walked away?

Day 1268, tools.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1268.jpg

The tools

of a thinker

a window to look

from under

a sunshade

for the harsh

light

Day 1267, lines.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1267.jpg

From here

I see lines

coming together

in the future

when I wake

on my side

I am not

so sure

Day 1266, mask.

Day's pictures, Poetry

DSCF0736.jpg

Its the inside

of a mask

what I see

when I look at

you

Day 1265, muted.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1265-1.jpg

This is an echo

passing by

from the past

more refined

maybe

than before

the details muted

maybe

lost?

Day 1264, in front.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1264-1.jpg

I see it

a few times a year

laid out in front

of me

hoping it stays

colorful

and clean

Day 1263, ancient.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1263-1.jpg

I see

an ancient landscape

where my roots are

detached forever

and my mind

an artificial

line

Day 1262, leaf.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1262-1.jpg

I detach

and fall

for a short time

colors stay

vibrant on the hard soil

underneath

the tree

where I grew up

Day 1261, double mirror.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1261-1.jpg

Two faces

just before

they disappear

look at you

telling you

nothing

Day 1260, landing.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1260-1.jpg

A last

distorted landing

wondering aimlessly

~

picking up a scent

of where to die

Day 1259, clouds.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1259-1.jpg

The wind is weak

between the clouds

where I

slowly move

and embrace

my world

til I am heavy

and fall

Day 1258, fading out.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1258.gif

When the wind is over the horizon

and the evening calms

the dark sea reflects

~

your thoughts fall

in silence

with nothing

Day 1257, stuck.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1257-1.jpg

A new hinge

for an old door

to open

that room

that you once

closed
