Poetry

Day 1392, stare.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1392.jpg

Sometimes

I see double

and upside

down

~

I say it

twice

to me

and you

~

draped in

deception

a comfortable

cloak

~

these

are the stares

I

sometimes

go

till the end

of

our time

Day 1390, in my mind.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1390.jpg

In the corner

of my mind

I sit

on a desk

~

in front

of me

I have a box

with

several

dials to turn

~

I don’t know

what they do

but

nonetheless

I turn them

and see

what happens

Day 1389, keyhole.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1389.jpg

The light

shines

on the door

but doesn’t reach

all the corners

~

I look

for the keyhole

in the darkest

Day 1388, I open.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1388.jpg

It feels

like a room

where it is

dark

~

I scuff slowly

touching

hoping to feel

something

~

a shade opens

its light

outside

and the floor

I see

inside

seems

to be

~

all

tied up

Day 1387, sun an rain.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1387.jpg

The sun

and rain

fall

together

~

the one

goes slow

the other

fast

~

they

will never meet

but

together

they

paint the sky

Day 1386, my window.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1386.jpg

Fast

comes down

the snow

~

till

it stops

when it meets

my window

~

the wind

still moves it

left and right

~

but it is now

on its way

down

slowly

Day 1385, storms.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1385.jpg

The roof I live under

is thin

when it storms

I feel it

~

by chance

the structure

that supports

is strong

and holds

Day 1384, peck-oh.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1384.jpg

Orange pekoe

two words

before

not in my world

has no meaning

for me

~

am I now richer

or

pourer

Day 1382, staring.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1382.jpg

We are all

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1378.jpg

In some places

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1378.jpg

I sometimes

feel drained

hanging

face down

in the air

~

hands

through the slits

where I feel

the freedom

as they move
