flames
The flames ravaged at my livelihood, at everything that was near and dear to me. They were tearing my childhood home apart, threatening my memories and my relationships. I did not know where I would go after.

backpack
The sky is an endless blue above, the ground a dirty gravel beneath my feet. Five hundred million miles have been walked, and five hundred million more are left. I stand and stare out at the expanse of openness in front of me, towering mountain peaks, capped in snow even in the burning height of summer.

montage
In the beginning there was air, and sky, and a little bit of love and fairy dust, and when that all came together it made the land and the water. And when it rained seeds were planted in the ground, and from the seeds grew the mods delicate shoots of plants that have ever seen, and two of these plants grew eggs, and from those eggs emerged us.

Three spaces and silence. A wave on a shore. The crying of a lost child. Dark forests and thick, twisted vines. Anger, hot and red, boiling over and destroying a thin spiderweb of love. An old couple strolling down the street, arm in arm.

Pictures are pinned up to a wall: developed, black and white. There is death in almost all of them, a strange singular fixation by the photographer. On the opposite wall, vibrant colours explode: scenes of life and happiness abound. In the middle, there stands a person, caught between these two polar worlds.

remember
I remember when we first met- you were so shy, you hardly dared to look at me. You commented on my little red book, my book of poems. I told you that I liked poems, and offered to let you read the book. You denied; I hoped it was because you wanted to talk to me more.

carve
Today I thought I wanted to carve away at my past. Just sort of take out the parts that I’m tired of looking at. That are holding me back. But it won’t happen, because things just don’t work that way.
