rock-
ing back
and
forth my
carrier
case swings
bump-
ing up
against my
human's chest on
the way to...
to... oh!
look!
that dog's
pulling her
human
down
the side-
walk

What do you see?

For Sadje’s WDYS prompt, she offers us this photograph of a man carrying a pensive-looking puppy in a carrier bag across his shoulders. The photo was taken by Dex Ezekiel (Unsplash).


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)

Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!
