Operation [Free Verse]

Closeup photograph taken in Jayu Park (Freedom Park) in Incheon, South Korea.
Opening bleary eyes,
back on a cold, hard surface...

I know not where...

All I see,
All I know,
is a confluence of
sharp pointed tips:

hard points of unknown purpose
from which my brain attempts
to gauge a distance as
they come into razor clear
focus.

What hard robotic purpose
have these mean tines?

Ominous [Common Meter]

An ornate door seen in Armenia. It's wood surface carved into winding patterns that form a cross and snake-like patterns.
What lives behind that ornate door
that's carved of snakes and vines?
I see them writhe and feel a shift
in its symbols and signs.
