rain hangs like sifted chalk under park lights, still as drama the stage is set: dancers, strung like puppets from a drop-down sky black cat-suits two dimensional against luminescent green jewel-glint & risque poses only bedraggled bark ribbons give the trees away thunder applauds
Written for Whimsygizmo’s dVerse Quadrille – a 44 word poem including the word “chalk”
This is really lovely. I can almost smell those damp eucalyptus leaves in your photo.

Lol. It was very low key here. Luke a mindfulness meditation- all the right atmospheric noises with nothing alarming.
