Wheeeeee

Lillian is focused on the end of 2021!! 


careening through life

blips, blurs on our storyboards  

you the subject me your predicate

diagrammed with flawless precision

we crossed invisible boundaries

boulevards lined with see through trees

umbrellas dripping, shimmering in full sunlight

you the painter me the poser 

a perfect double exposure

    Looks like a fun adventure for you. Make it come alive in your storyboard.

    Well! You had me at the third line, being an old English teacher! I LOVE what you've done here:
    "you the subject, I your predicate"
    "you the painter, I the poser"
    and then the perfect double exposure.
    Just a wonderful write and use of the word.

    Can't have art without paint AND canvas. Best tangos have TWO dancers. Great work, Helen.

    WOW! You are producing some great stuff of late, my friend. Using the conjugation of a sentence is a brilliant move, and you've done it gloriously!
