Aquinnah Cliffs, Martha's Vineyard |
Blue Lapis Sea
Within the chest
is a wide, blue
lapis sea.
The ribcage
breaks open –
dancers leap
out,
spinning in
unison.
The thump,
thump, thump
of a hand on the
drum –
the only way out
is in.

Sharing another offering of poetry and art from my ekphrastic project, Postcards from the Eternal, currently-in-progress. I have been creating this fusion of photography and poetry for the past 3 years. I often give these postcards away, as gifts, and donate bulk copies of cards to non-profits and charities. A selection of these cards are also available online at Fine Art America and at my local indie bookstore, Books & Co. (Oconomowoc, WI).
