almost a shadow
almost an echo between
vast uncertainties
hidden voices wandering
the uncharted borderlines
This year’s Wolf Moon comes with a penumbral eclipse. For Frank Tassone’s #Haikai Challenge #120, and also linked to OLN on dVerse, hosted by Grace.
This is a watercolor with a moon photo collaged on top.
I’m going to be absent from posting for awhile, though I will try to check in with what everyone’s doing. I’m moving into a small temporary space, putting most of my stuff in storage, and hoping to move into a permanent home before 2020 is through. I won’t have a drawing table and not sure how many supplies will fit into the space, but I’ll be back to doing more work of some kind as soon as I can.

Good luck with the move, Kerfe.

Thanks Merril. Sometimes our thoughts run in parallel lines…
I knew it was coming, and it’s a relief to move forward even if its a sideways move.

I love the lines:
‘almost an echo between
vast uncertainties’
and I’m sure that’s how you will feel between homes. I hope the move goes well, Kerfe, and you don’t miss your drawing table too much. Come back soon!

I’d like to think that, as I reach later in life, there is more certainty, but it seems our lives, and definitely the world, is a layer of uncertainties.

I’ve never been able to find a secure place with any real certainty. But it would certainly be welcome.
