‘What do you see’ prompt
For today’s #WDYS prompt, Sadje offers us this image of the silhouettes of a tall giraffe with a woman standing in front of him. The background shows a beautiful hued sky in pinks and oranges.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)

It triggers a response
A waltz wave in conflict
It reminds me of war
Time to pack up
Grab what you have
There is a river to cross
