Let’s Go Fly a Kite!

Kite

You Never Miss?

And You’ll Be
Like Clementine

A Social
Conscience?

Better Late
Than Never?

Neighbourhood
Watch

One Out,
One In

Out Of
Your Shade

Step
Into Twilight

You Are There

Daddy’s Girl
Has Fallen Down

Aap Jaisa Koi

I’d Forgotten Just How Beautiful You Are

Miss Japan?

Commentary

The knight pauses to listen outside the castle.  Is that a damsel in distress he can hear?

How simple & straightforward these fairytales seem...






Behind a thick veneer
of honour and sophistication

within a palace's façade

sometimes run corridors
of darkness and intimidation

and forced unspoken sacrifice.

What lies within your walls?


 



Skeletons refusing to stay in closets
suffer retribution
from the queen
and her man.

You showed me slit windows,
echoed screams and an invitation

but so much remains unseen.

Miss Japan?
