30-Day Image Prompt.


It's not for me to say;
seeing is only one-fifth
         the experience.
If that's what you'll hold me to,
know that your thought's
         incomplete at best,
but clearly not enough
         also
to take into consideration that
I may not be who you claim me
         to be;
the result of calculations
filled with variables assumed
isn't checked against
         any mirror or image
and cannot be trusted as
         fact.
Just because you see it,
doesn't make me any more
         or less
me.

30-Day Image Prompt.


You see language rearranging right in front of you.
It sounds purple and clandestine, like
the castle it came from under your own breath.
Never too puzzled to search; never content to believe.
Every side has changing sides and your job
isn't to alphabetize them, but catalog their
features...like I note yours each night before sleep
takes me over and farther away from you.
Color my eyes with your lungs.
Fill me with danger should I not feel.
Take me to where you see me, so I may
rest upon the tops of your cheeks and be
all my visions animated through your softness.
Turn me into a perfect clear.

30-Day Image Prompt.


The torque of perception
is the common denominator.
Nothing needs to be true to be believed.
Traffic in the present,
using the past as currency
toward a future you think you're creating,
and don't let doubt blindside you.
Avoid breathing sepia. Call your shots
in full-time technicolor vistas
or become another sidewalk statue
we wonder why we admire.
The starting points look so similar,
but the results are trivia answers
no one seems to know the questions to
so we fabricate facts thinking
no one's the wiser if we're all
subplots in everyone else's
looking-glass conspiracies.
