#wombwellrainbow #paulbrookes
DETAILS: Check out the photo prompt provided by Paul Brookes, EIC of Wombwell Rainbow. Brookes provides lots of prompts for artists. His created responses of the day posts are just what you might envision. He posts a photo (usually of his town in the metropolitan borough of Barnsley in South Yorkshire, England) and it generates creative responses. IN this instance, the shadows followed a perspective to the opening of light and my poem centered on that light and the geometric patterns I noticed throughout the image. |
DEAR READER
Welcome to my literature, music, and visual poetry project. My blog represents a method for deciphering the fragments left behind in the Anthropocene. Writers use ashes as a metaphorical device in storytelling. Have you ever wondered about the symbolism of ashes? Archaeological fragments of tablet, papyrus, bone, scroll, and pottery are recognizable the world over. In our digital era, however, our lost folkloric works disintegrate into dust. In this sense, I consume the silver flakes and use my he{art] as a vessel to rise from dystopic wastelands. I share lore through the oral tradition. Ashes to Ashes we continue on ∞ to infinity ∞ We are ash. We are stories. We are star dust. We are eternal.
