Day 1110-1.jpg

Walking through

a concrete world

where the sun never sets

and the shadow always follows

Day 1108, destiny.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1108-1.jpg

Time and destiny

two illusions

to replace the fear

of being

slowly pulled

in

to the end

Day 1107, meaning.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1107-1.jpg

Figuring out

what something is

that is freed from

any meaning

doesn’t feel like

the end

 when you don’t

try

Day 1105, decent in.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1105-1.jpg

The mirror I decent in

has no reflection,

and inside, I stare

at a thousand directions

to see nothing but silence.

Only the cold reminds me.

Day 1104, believe.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1104-1.jpg

When people started dividing,

in the cave we never left,

the few in front of us all

where only closer to the shapes

the shadows of what is not

for us all.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1101, evolution.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1101-1.jpg

Day 1099, stairs up.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1099-1.jpg

A corridor leads

to stairs up

dimly lit

by ancient, incandescent

its filaments

humming

counting down, to their end.

Rushed by the cadence

I feel my way

up

eyes closed

foreseeing the darkness

escaping  time

ending.

Day 1098, reflections.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1098-1.jpg

From afar

you look bright, in red

I come closer

to greet

I can’t see

inside

from up here

through reflections

I see

your former

when we do

meet

Day 1097, my room.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1097-1.jpg

My room

is silently lit by harsh light,

where I stand naked in front of

reaching for a sign

that someone

opens

my window.

Day 1096, chains.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1096-1.jpg

I like to think, I wonder

what chains, old, big or small

between me and tomorrow,

that will pull. Me? Away.

Day 1095, workplace.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1095-1.jpg

Harsh light comes from outside

leaving the darkness in corners.

My workspace is well lit,

I have the time for this

just have to get the tools.
