Poetry

Day 2912, above.

aphorism, Daily picture, Poetry
From above
work seems easy

Day 2911, hardly.

aphorism, Daily picture, Poetry
A collection of wooden planks
nails and work
the ingredients written down
a long past ago

still we use it
we are hardly changed

Day 2910, used to.

aphorism, Daily picture, Poetry
I love the story a picture can tell
even if you don’t know what you see

it’s because we are so used to it

13/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged aphorism, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2909, half reflected.

aphorism, Daily picture, Poetry
I forged raw iron till it reflected 
what I could not see straight on

it costs me half a life
but what half?

Day 2908, closely.

aphorism, Daily picture, Poetry
I looked at it so closely 
that I didn’t know what I was looking at

Day 2907, boards.

Daily picture, Poetry
I walked along the fence
in search of an opening

but all I found
was a board on the floor
an opening too small

I could only look through
at the darkness inside
forever it seems

10/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2906, almost.

Daily picture, Poetry
I almost mist the hidden door
because I was looking for a way out

09/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2904, but me.

Daily picture, Poetry
I don’t recognize my shadow
when it sneaks up from behind
or stares me in the face

I just now it’s always there
in a different form
but me
07/03/202408/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2903, view.

Daily picture, Poetry
View from the couch
where else do you have the best view?
06/03/202408/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2902, to me.

Daily picture, Poetry
I live in an abandoned building
I think
the echo speaks to me

05/03/202405/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2901, about me.

Daily picture, Poetry
I don’t know what they say about me
and what would I do
if I knew

they are right about their first impression
and you don’t even have one
you only have
at most
a few words
a description
about parts of you

04/03/202404/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2900, escape.

Daily picture, Poetry
I can’t reach the fire escape
because there is no fire

03/03/202403/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2898, why?

Daily picture, Poetry
An unknown workplace
where you know every tool
just not why it is there

01/03/202401/03/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2897, outside inside.

Daily picture, Poetry
The worlds you look at
through your windows
are as much a part of your life
as the inside
where you live

29/02/202429/02/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2895, tarmac.

Daily picture, Poetry
I arrived in this city
the black tarmac was in front of me
this whole time
but only arrived
did I notice it

28/02/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2894, power.

Daily picture, Poetry
I have to recharge after a short while
over and over again
if I want to reach you
