Prey

Worshipping symbols;
donning statues in garlands—
doomed humanity.

Drive

A slap in the face;
driving along the highway—
greenery up close.

Dried up river bed,
staring at the horizon—
with a mind as blank.

Major throwback: Tsongmo Lake, Sikkim, India

Silent history,
peaceful as monastery,
mystery, nature.

Summertime haven,
like walking into heaven—
photographs from then.
