I Found My Round Boat Hidden in the Rushes

Images tumble into each other like loaves of bread or stones or clouds.

Shrouded with fragrance and translucent vibrations, drawing birds near.

We reimagine memories splashing in the dark.

As the days shorten we create stories to explain reasons and purposes.

I borrowed some images from my ‘long blue painting’ to reconfigure in Photoshop.

My 2022 35′ X 5′ long blue painting (on a roll of Italian mid-weight paper) shown & described in a previous posting: https://poemimage.com/category/x-steven-mccabe-mostly-working-in-silence/

I photographed this work titled Druidica Blue: Deja Vu (Cave Art for the New Psyche) in sections on the floor. Below is the final section (of eleven).

I Went Down to the Mall

I went down to the mall.

They said they wanted somebody who spoke an extinct language.

They asked me which one I spoke.

I said I forgot.

They said that’s okay.

We might have something for you anyway.

They asked me if I was familiar

with the concept

of reincarnation.
