Intro


I stumbled across this image, as you do, and the lines of this poem occurred to me


The image for the Poem


the doll asked me

do you know her tattooist Drax

no I said, hesitating, drawn to the image

wary of the doll's motives

any doll hanging by the neck has motives,

my motto

how much time have i got with this image

before the door of life knocks and I am disturbed

at being disturbed....

nice poetry with a nice photo attached to it. it really makes the person think for the exact meaning behind the scene

A tat on the doll would have brought it all together...The grouse on the couch appears unimpressed...been there, done that..? Or just waiting to pounce on that creature crawling out from between the cleavage...Larry

Hi Swathin2, this is the interesting thing with random images... trying to interpret what the person creating it had in mind... thanks for the comment.

Hi Maven101, I must come back and add a few more verses to this to continue to explore more of the angles/curves... :-)

Thanks for the comment.
