THINGS FLY APART (photomorph) & NOTHING STICKS (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

NOTHING STICKS

nothing sticks together anymore
connections lasting only long enough
to take note of before they disassemble

when did every surface become
so smooth and slick
that a meeting up barely raises hope
before promptly
slipping apart

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,
