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's pictures, Poetry

An old house

Day 1100, horizon.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The road to freedom

ends

where the horizon

begins.

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 1091, different.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1091-1.jpg

It started out as one, all the same

in time some told to go, change

falling to be replaced, worn down

still together in being, different.

Day 1090, couch.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1090-1.jpg

The left side of the couch

is where I stare,

sitting in the middle –

where future meets past

my silence –

of the room.

Day 1089, my room.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1089-1.jpg

I was cooking the other day

and sorrows where thinking for me,

between the damp and smoke.

It’s a mess, said my room

up there, in my thoughts

where I stare at the walls.

Day 1088, out there.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1088-1.jpg

It comes from under the door

from far, driven by the wind

What it is? That’s waiting out there.

Day 1085, waiting.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1085-1.jpg

Waiting for the reflection

to disappear

and swim

in molten ice.

Day 1083, clouds.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1083-1.jpg

Shadows slowly take over the last hour of the day

drifting from sea heavy laden clouds come to engulf

and feast on what’s left of the warmth in the valleys.

Day 1081, cat and mouse.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1081-1.jpg

A cat, goes around

a corner in the house.

–

A mouse, turns around

a corner in the house.

–

Both, they stand still

waiting, for the chase.
