Day 1347, from hard to soft.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1347.jpg

I have

these hard lines

that I endlessly

repeat

as to

soften the world

for

my

digestion

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1345.jpg

They grew up

stare

at others

reflections

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1342.jpg

A roof

the least appreciated

of what our ancestor

from under its protection

culture

politics

~

maybe

looking at the stars

is not that bad

Day 1340, around.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1340.jpg

This massive

rock

slowly tumbles

through space

around the force

that caught

it

~

with no end

in sight

only

for some limited

time

a life

out of these rocks

appreciated

this all
