SUB ROSA (photo) & THE DECISION (mixed format dream poem) by Roswila

THE DECISION

I open the door
to the closet on impulse: Brad Pitt!
well, who's more amused,
this actor I've not seen in ages
or me, this old, still curious gal?

"Hey, Brad, Angelina's out here at the party, too,"
I say, but he seems rather content in his solitude

hung briefly on the hinge of decision I wonder
should I out him, then just softly shut the door

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers, as the above is), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
