    a white rocking chair
    wooden fence
    tea leaves
    steeped in cold
    water
    the remains
    of food
    of tobacco
    the sense of
    living
    here.

    dreams
    in and out
    of consciousness
    sleepy head
    couches
    pillow
    books untouched
    read

    music
    classic
    guitars
    squeally
    trailing
    banjo
    blue
    rainbow
    red
    black slips
    and sexy mama
    baby screams
    and sweets
    so many sweet
    things

    pink
    the smell
    of piss
    still lingering
    kombucha
    demons
    skulls
    and geishas
    drums
    and marajuana

    dishes
    clean dishes
    crusty
    grimy
    sharp knives
    sushi
    rice.

    Well done, very clear and certainly striking images. A nice flow.

    Very very good. Minimalism really paints the best, the most vivid image here. It was aslmost as if I was there, I could really get the sense of the piece.

    agree with all above, intense imagery creating emotion with so few words.... I ate this one up, and at the end felt fulfilled... stunning work :)
