Poet Hair II
Sharing Poet Hair II from my previous photo blog, Lowe Aperture:
this is a theme I’m interested in pursuing, as my hair has always been part of how people used to recognize me, (the girl with the really long hair!). Most of the time-actually all of the time-the attention was unwanted. It’s not as long now, and maybe a little tinted with henna, but I remind myself of that Korean proverb: a poet’s hair can cut rock. It’s a reminder as how to be. It inspires me in many ways. These are unposed, random strands of hair, after a wash, edited on an iPhone 6 plus.
Craters at Colt State
hot sun; harsh rays bolt
from the sky; looking down, soft
palms, dirty on stone
Gray’s Beach
Empty path, windy day,
Grey skies at Gray’s Beach, water
Clapping underneath.
Fruit In Motion
Bear with me, I decided (finally!) to create some prose to accompany the photographs and live up to the theme of this blog. Forgive any mediocrity and lack of haiku awareness, training.
sliced plum, torn peach, late
sun; hurried wife wiping hands,
wet bowls, white and glass.

Poet Hair II
Candid moments of cast aside strands of hair post shower.
Poet Hair
I read once, years ago, a Korean proverb that said “a poet’s hair can cut rock.” This has stayed with me, and continues to inspire me, and the following photos. I thought I’d take another look at hair, close up as the strands were randomly pulled and twirled aside during a shower, (lest they clog the drain). A little editing here and there on my trusty iPhone 6 plus, but I did not pose the strands themselves. Candid hair!
