The Art Challenge # 16- Anonymous

August 29th, 2009 · 8 Comments

I am shadow and mystery. Masked and invisible, I watch and listen.
You call me a unknown, but you are well aware of my existence.
You search for me, yet I stand right beside you.
Every face you wonder …could it be me?
Be assured, I am with you.
Nameless and unidentified is the choice I’ve made.
I am ANONYMOUS.
Creepy, huh?

The Art Challenge #15- No Theme-Theme

August 15th, 2009 · 10 Comments

 No path to follow, nor touch to guide.
Unforeseen adventure, careless and free.
No signs baring entry, fences blocking passage.
Dreamers wander, pursuing uncommon terrain.
No map to guide, nor compass to navigate.
Unrestrained, dauntless, liberating exploit.
Abstract imagination, envisioning artistry.
Unhindered thought, pursuing creative abandon.
No syllabus outlined, perceptions illuminating.
Inspired visions, freed by imaginative thoughts.
Delicate symmetry of complete imbalance.
Boundaries withdrawn, joyous independence.
Written [...]

“To know the Moon as few men may, one must be just a little fey;
And for our friendship’s sake I’m glad, that I am just a trifle mad.
……
Until one night the Moon alone- will look upon a graven stone.
I wonder will it miss me then, its lover more than other men?
Or will my wistful ghost [...]
