One and all

Photo of the intersection of the ocean and sky, as seen from the window of a plane. The plane’s wing is visible in the photo.

At the edge of Earth—
our airplane glides silently
we’re a pale blue dot.

Alcoholics anonymous

photo of empty alcohol bottles suspended upside down from the roof of a bar at the Singapore airport

A pristine lineup;
delicate lives on the ledge
one drop from mishap.

Observer effect

close up photo of a small fountain at the Singapore airport

The flowing fountain,
in a photographer’s eyes,
locked in a moment.

Airport

photo of the ceiling at the Singapore airport, where there's plants in thin metal rods running along the ceiling and lantern lights between them

Distorted lighting;
questionable plants in nooks—
high in an airport.

Magnet

Photo of a cloudy sky, with clouds milling around the sun and blue patches in between them.

The great convergence:
partly cloudy summer’s day,
great magnet, the sun.
