Weekly Photo Challenge: Cover Art
I keep telling myself
that maybe it’s an oversight
but that lump
in my throat
tells me
that if you really wanted to
talk to me
you would have found a way
long ago

Weekly Photo Challenge: Refraction
do not be so bold
as to question faith
while your feet
are so firmly rooted
in the ground
rather
pierce the universe
by looking outwards
and find
what has been missing

Weekly Photo Challenge: Dreamy
i know for a fact
that you remember this day
completely differently
than I
those big holes in your memory
have erased

and left only a sour taste
unconditional love
like the last dregs of coffee
emptied into the dustbin
and
forgotten

Weekly Photo Challenge: Signs
closed
nothing left
but a few square feet
on the third floor of a museum
no more celebrities
no more labour disputes
no more long lines
waiting for a taste
of smoked meat and a coke
but perhaps
the straw that broke
the kravitz’ back
was just
that $5.50 super deluxe sundae
♨︎

Weekly Photo Challenge: Nighttime
on a thursday afternoon
they would wander
white-gloved
a few soda crackers and peppermints
wrapped carefully in a handkerchief
and tucked into pocketbooks
just in case
they would say
and nod agreement
to the happy collusion
spent lingering
by the perfume counter
but Friday
would always come
striding in on too-high heels
gin and tonic fueled
waiting to be dragged
onto the dance floor
cherries in the snow
smeared
on saturday’s collar
‼︎

Weekly Photo Challenge: Humanity
Where once the world had been so small
that letters wore stamps
postmarked weary
like travellers on foot
siberia to africa
in another life
another time
where once eyes wide
with all that was wonderful
in this bright new world
saw promise and hope
reflected upon the screen
now
it is all of humanity
that pours forth
ignoring and repeating
reviling and revolting
having forgotten history
and how
to just turn it off
⨥
Stay tuned to the entries in the Weekly Photo Challenge: Humanity.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Zigzag
suspicions were
that lost mail
floated away
to some dun-coloured bin
in the far recesses
of an alternate universe
post office

it zigzags
straight

to become bright
decoration
for marauders
of all kinds

Weekly Photo Challenge: Contrast
the city screams
for distinction
while bentleys and bicycles
battle for supremacy
high-priced whores and hipsters
haggle over who will win
the race, the game
the housing crunch
in a soulless search
to leave their stamp
on the door
in a town
where everyone is an artist
