walk with us
What path are you taking?
the wind
whistles between
the mountains
…
our path taken
is and always
will be a choice
we must make
to go down what we know
or to make a new one
for ourselves and others
substitutes
Who will replace you?
early morning
warm sushi rice bathes in
apple cider vinegar
…
or replacements
whatever we want
to call them
may make the difference
between a good or bad
cookbook recipe to even
a sports team winning or losing
who made it
Do you know who invented the products regularly use?
toothbrush
the last defense
against popcorn
…
the creator
of any art
is a label
that will stay
with it forever
until future generations
forget and need to look things up
album cover
How do you form first impressions?
rubber plant
a stroke of green
across leaves
…
just like a
book cover
packaging
matters for us
to get a glimpse
of what is inside
and waiting to be explored
put it down
How do you get out of a rut?
living room
the lamp appears
when asked
…
then pick it up
then put it down again
then pick it up again
sometimes all we need
is a little time away
for us to get out
of a mental rut
bubble wrap
What safety measures are you taking?
plastic box
we can see
a circus inside
…
sometimes
it pays to have
and take safety
precautions
and extra measures
when we plan out
our next move
portion control
When do you use moderation?
salad bowl
and only tomatoes
remain
…
as the saying
we often hear and tell
ourselves goes
everything
in moderation
is a good rule
to follow in most cases
talk about it
What ideas are you working on?
sizzle and steam
the mind wanders
flipping burgers
…
discuss it
work it out
the idea
is not enough
and only the first part
of turning something
into reality
junk drawer
Are you controlling your chaos?
tape dispenser
resting besides
a pair of scissors
…
when chaos
is controlled
or at least
shows signs
of having a system
the randomness
may disappear
over or under
Do you know what will happen next?
forgotten shrubs
left waving at the sun
day after day
…
having knowledge
about a subject
doesn’t always
mean we will know
what an outcome will be
as this is just one factor
in the game of life
leave space
Are you leaving room for others?
white lines
separating rusted metal
from smooth pavement
…
from topics such
as a conversation
to allow others
to ask questions
or simply enough room
for us to be able
to safely park a vehicle
