more storage
What are you saving for later?
another box
of wrapping paper
around the puppet
…
if we make
more space
to put things
away from our eyes
the more things
we will buy
before our eyes
be content
Are you content with your life?
library books
on the counter
for young eyes
…
creating content
and hoping it goes viral
or showing off
doesn’t matter
we should strive
to be satisfied with
wanting what we already have
birthday wishes
What are you wishing for?
clapping hands
to the rhythm of
midsummer fireworks
…
we may stop
celebrating them
in public
but we will
always make time
to think and act
on what we wished for
side by side
What side are you on?
short summer
a day at the beach
a day feeding gulls
…
light and dark
young and old
saddness and happiness
day and night
we often cannot
have one without
the other
generations
What does your generation tell you?
on the bench
a box of chocolates
a box of stories
…
when we see
previous and newer ones
value and solve
for different things
this isn’t anyone’s fault
but more so a reaction
to what the world
was like in their eyes
on the topic
What topic is important to you to talk about?
shelf of postcards
telling the story
of last winter
…
or even
off the topic
the topic
determines
what we
will say
and do
back seat window
Where are you looking?
golden goodbye
the afternoon glow
against the steppe
…
if we only
look outside from
where we are seated
and not from
others positions
we may never
see all the views
light switch
How do you prepare to preform?
center stage
spotlights show
a lone chair
…
we all
have the
ability to
it turn on
and off
depending on
the space and time
bowline knots
Does your life feel connected or unraveld?
red luggage rolls
around and around
for all to see
…
zippers
strings
straps
and cords
how we attach
and hold in place
our lives is up to us
stable or stuck
Are you satisfied where you are?
window view
looking at ocean waves
calm then crash
…
once we find
ourselves
settled in
is comfort
the end goal
we want or is it
something else?
