it's all relative
What would you put in a time capsule?
newspaper ink
imprints onto the
kitchen table
…
our favorite food
tv show, book, or game
to even what makes
us happy or sad
is part of the reveal
for the next generation
to discover about us
if it's true
What wealth are you accumulating?
speaking japanese
a conversation
with my grandparents
…
wealth is more
than money
then shouldn’t we
be asking ourselves
what can we do today
that shows us a new way
for appreciating what we have
red or blue
What is the power of choice?
the sandlot
dust sweeps over
tennis shoes
…
presents us
with a choice
to choose one option
which will lead us
down a path
we may or may not
completely comprehend
off script
When do you improvise?
elastic straps
wrapped around
vintage denim
…
takes away
our fear of failure
or set expectations
to motion in
our burning desire
to take risks and
expand our imagination
tic tac toe
Do you trust your intuition?
green yarn
dangling from
the cat’s tail
…
two players
sitting across
from each other
pondering how
our intuition
leads us to
wins, loses, and draws
back and forth
What is your daily ritual?
four wheels
taking the owner
back home
…
people pass by
in their cars
or taking their dog
for a walk around
the neighborhood
are the everyday rituals
we see outside the window
rainy days
What are you waiting for?
traffic cones
directing vehicles
towards new ground
…
there has to be
more then this
grey overcast
if we are
willing to wait
for the sun
to shine again
on and off
When do you find yourself to be the most creative?
hydrangea
in the shade
opens up
…
the switch goes
when the power is on
everyone sees
our finished projects
and when the light’s off
we start all over to make
another masterpiece
squeaky clean
Do you clean behind the toilet?
september rain
teardrops disappear
in the river
…
it’s rather difficult
to clean
behind the toilet
but without
regular checks
we could risk
the build up of more work
