A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.


Here we are on Hunter Street, outside the University of Tasmania's Art School looking towards what remains of the working port. It's an interesting nexus of ideas at work here, and is replicated in Launceston, where their Art School is located with an old railyard. Deliberate? Who knows!

Here's a romantic poem today.

Woman

Her hair...
shimmered.

Her eyes...
sparkled.

Her smile...
glimmered.

Her neck...
glistened.

Her pancreas...
excreted.

Urm, the absurdity of romance indeed.

Kris said...

Priyanka, romance is a bit silly really. It makes people do profoundly stupid things.
