I and the Village

ogling the green man - triangle between his nose and the dairy goat

scytheman spoils - dreamy village, ‘cept for the upside-down violinist

green man wears cap and St. Andrew’s cross -
                                                tree of life pinched between fingers

cubist colors - emotive impact, up and down, side to side, frenzy

Crystol Woods Date: 8/27/2024 12:37:00 PM I'm glad you decided to write more than one monoku, they're each done with thought and imagery, the painting so busy it needs more than one line! But you've expressed so much with so few words, it's more difficult for me than writing an essay! Impressive Kim! Xo Login to Reply Kim Rodrigues Date: 8/27/2024 1:45:00 PM Thank you, Crystol!
