Kanji

liquid neon

 

sleepless

  

waiting - again  

 

the foreign voice - taunting  

 

uncomfortable fluorescence

 

flickering

 

a token mural - weary 

 

reflections on black glass

 

shadow in the corner

 

leaning on everyone 

 

slide away 

 

the cursive night - guttural

 

onomatopoeia

 

lost in translation

 

hypnotic neon   

 

brush strokes upon a midnight mirage

 

forgotten Kanji

'brush strokes upon a midnight mirage

forgotten Kanji'

love that image, the sense of language, the poetry wrapping city colours 'flourescence' and 'neon' and the way this contrasts with 'reflections on black glass' (gorgeous image). this poem left me moving in different directions but i loved the poetic slant and the choice of words and image. stunning!

i wonder if it is not too late to contemplate and learn the meaning of the brush strokes...it takes the meditative patience of the lover of nature to absorb the meaning of those symbols...you seem to have found that peace

sheer hues applied with expert brush strokes~

You have a gift of bringing the reader into your world... provoking the mind to reach the outer limits of the box that contains the mundane. I am enlightened by your mesmerizing view of Kanji...There is always a Brilliant theme illuminated in your work of Art. Brilliant write!

You are always excellent at creating the mood, with such a few words, even.. Penetrating, captivating.

Such strong descriptions. I love the formatting of this piece, its words flow so fluently too. good work.

I have to look up what Kanji is or who, but I am in awe. I have to really take a step because you are really amazing. I just started to click and like the trigger was pulled I have been blown away. Amazed. Now speechless.
no smoke blowing. You must read them to yourself and get a dose of how this makes one feel, step outside and look through the window, I don't think I am actually capable of speechless but rambling I can do:) Just perfect....

A raw piece of beauty, some Kanji are forgotten, as rōmaji can be born... but this peace is full of hidden messages, for someone special, I guess.

Enjoyed this woven virtual artwork, a good one!
