we are so far from those honey-
suckle-twisted
fences, looking in
on the cemetery of our
youth, without a trace
of fear
for our mortality, but
instead, for the boogie
man, for losing the way
home, for abandonment.
these days, we wear purpose-
pinned
fear, preparing
for that eclipsed
moment, when there is
no hope
of rescue,
and frailty
is a tarantula
of glances

What I like most about this photo is the contrast so strongly represented between natural shapes and man-made shapes. The phrase “a tarantula of glances fits this so well, “Y”. I think I will see this photo in my mind years from viewing it tonite. Thank-you.
i recently entered the Artists Wanted contest for photography. i’d appreciate it if you could visit the site and give me a vote whenever you can (every 24 hours, it allows one vote). please click here to go to page. thank you for your assistance!
Hi “Y”! I went and voted, but I must be doing something wrong. A vote is a click on the stars? That is what I did and the count did not go up. So frustrating…..What to do…Advice? Do I have to sign in to vote?When I clicked on the star it said thank-you so I figured they took it.
