Snug amongst the pines,
scarred by twigs, marred by stones,
home the hiker came.
Black as the heart of hell,
Shiny as newfangled love,
Sleek as silver lined ring,
light as a mild heavy feather
Flashy as a sequinned LBD,
rich as chocolate mud cake
With a finish like well-oiled muscle
fits in the palm as a cake of soap.
As for the cherry on the top,
a scratch that makes the matte.

Weren’t you a slop in high school?
Didn’t believe that you made it big,
Couldn’t imagine you in a full suit,
Until I saw you lounging in a coffin.
It was in the Periyar Tiger Reserve in Thekkady. That’s where I came across this information centre. They had details about popular tourist attractions in Thekkady, including wildlife sanctuaries, safaris, over night camping plans, and more.
This building in particular, had a weird shape that I had to click it. I love curved edges and beautiful outlines. I like the idea that a building can be sharp and curved at the same time.
And I love the mild pointy top of the arch, the 90 degree angle of the doors, the the roof of the building sloping down, and—best of all—the uneven bricks laid along the arch. There are so many different edges in this picture that I had to take it.
