02022020

February 02, 2020 by Taylor Gray in Items

0202 markes a month and day in a delightfully symmetrical kind of way

2020 is a year still new _ in this dated poem involving the number two

But what of zero, it’s not just a void ... for two doesn’t become twenty until after it’s deployed

Occupants Observing

February 15, 2019 by Taylor Gray in Items

Situated singularly on a cold concrete floor, a seat is salvation for toes and more, it’s occupants observing, in a pivoting way, an indoor installation on a quiet winter day

A Tango Of Two

February 09, 2019 by Taylor Gray in Structures, Favorite

 The tempest is past, silhouetted towers remain - sandwiched between sunset and residuals of rain

Mankind and nature dancing a tango of two, footprints soar stirringly in a surrealistic stew

January 03, 2019 by Taylor Gray in Items


Edges ripple across a plain with an apparent bite that just might explain the element of danger that’s potentially perceived without being properly handled or carefully received

Letting Go

December 28, 2018 by Taylor Gray in People

Embracing existence, above and below - Twisting and turning, on a roll - Holding tightly, then letting go - Grasping newly, now in the know - Connecting consciously, not for show - Bringing empathy, a salve for woe - Lending a hand, feeling aglow

Origin Unknown

September 16, 2018 by Taylor Gray in Items

Tarnished timber on a shore, resting briefly then moving more ==> Taken by tide, origin unknown - floating freely, not nailed or owned ==> Knowing mostly sea or sand; no longer tethered to the land

August 19, 2018 by Taylor Gray in Structures

Beyond The Screen

May 15, 2018 by Taylor Gray in Structures

Dots arranged in an array of lines, horizontal and vertical and diagonally aligned, cause a perforated portrayal of an outdoor scene - causing mystery about what’s beyond the screen

A Puzzling Relief

March 06, 2018 by Taylor Gray in Structures

Overlapping edges in a series are a sight when graphically growing in size to the right

For parallel planes will warp beyond belief as they conspire to create a puzzling relief

And when punctuated by a portal reaching for the sky, there are plenty tricks that perspective plays upon the eye

Perpendicularity

December 29, 2017 by Taylor Gray in Structures

Perpendicular planes and ninety degrees form geometric shapes that subtly please
