prints (20170412)

Posted on April 12, 2017 by crow

you left footprints
in the folds of my gray matter
no waves to wash them away
an eternal shore
like the moon
without air
without water
only the roar of the ocean
and the crisp
outlines of your
shoes

Great write, I love the ending, that image feels like a contrast yet also a perfect fit within the law of nature.

“crisp / outlines of your / shoes” – what a strong and unusual image. Great work.
