Written for #dVerse Meeting the Bar with Host, Claudia Schoenfeld. Claudia’s prompt is about using images and metaphors boldly so that they paint a strong picture. Don’t use them in an indirect suggestive way but make us see 1:1 what you have in mind.
The blight of rub stains
Steel upon steel
Suspended stories rising skyward
Hoses of grey fall along long limbs of steel
These hanging wind chimes
Mighty oars of the wind
Spanish dancers among urban leaves
Moving in a wild rush
To belt out a song
love these aural and visual images…
