POINTED (photomorph) & GAME OF TRIANGLES (free verse dream poem) by Roswila

GAME OF TRIANGLES

they're playing that game again!
she's criticizing me from a cold remove,
as he watches with the sort of smile
that only a hyper-observant
person would see

then she moves in for the kill (so to speak),
starting to flirt with me in that way
some women have when they've
caught the scent, and his watchfulness now
so acute one could almost be cut by it

and as ever I have no idea what the point
is to this recurrent game of theirs
(though I do seem to be hoisted on it
each time nevertheless)

will it ever become clear
what they aim to find out
with their repeated triangulations

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,
