Portal of Rock and Stone
Looking out:
Stares through to beyond
field, hill, history
of possibility, hope
boundless
breaking past the confines
of a life, of lives.
Looking in:
Peers through sunlight into
mind, heart soul
through ruined lens
of wood and rock
to interior rooms,
now grass-carpeted.
Looking at:
Observes the painting
displayed on a wall of light
designed, imagined
as future, as past
the eye’s landscape
beckoning, retreating.

mmm...nice glynn...the last stanza in particular...nice imagery...
Inventive, interesting structure... amazing the perceptual shifts in language that occur when something as slight as a 2 or three letter preposition drastically alters meaning, in addition to effecting a reader's response and an observer's perceptions in explaining "art."
You captured the important angles. Great pounding imagery again.
I like how your eye takes us out, and in and to the observer within.
Very nice.
I like how you've created three frames of reference for a visually very interesting image and then imagined what the eye might see through each one.
I really like the structure of this.
You've taken the process of photography from the camera into a trip to the self. Like the way you've turned it into looking out at Tge shot so to speak giving a very human perspective. Glynn, this was very special x
I like the different perspectives ...
Glynn, you always have a cool way of looking at things and translating into poetry.
Great take - I love the sense of perspective that you've created here. With each change of view I feel like I'm moving to see what you see.
Well constructed as always, but the thoughts and words are haunting as well..."...the painting
displayed on a wall of light..." A fine line in a harmonious frame itself.
