Picture

This city is beauty
unbreakable and amorous as eyelids,
in the streets, pressed with fierce departures,
submerged landings,
I am innocent as thresholds
and smashed night birds, lovesick,
as empty elevators

let me declare doorways,
corners, pursuit, let me say
​standing here in eyelashes, in
invisible breasts, in the shrinking lake
in the tiny shops of untrue recollections,
the brittle, gnawed life we live,
I am held, and held
​— Dionne Brand

I like the effect of the close cropped photo, Annie. The shading of your lips as an answer to the questions your expression asks. The delight of the curlicues of hair to either side of your neck, and the crescent of the necklace on the valley of your neck inviting the eyes to the wishes of the supple graces of the ravine below.

The poem is exquisite and I shall have to take a room within to provide a reaction to it at a later time.

Have a lovely day~

Thank you and I do agree~
Right now, after several readings again this evening, I'm mesmerized by it. I'll be back to read again.

Beautiful image, Annie. Love the shadows and light here, and the light shading of your lips.
