UPDATE: The photographer wrote back, giving me permission to embed their photo. I am grateful for the response.– Kevin)
Random Access Poetry: Day Twenty One
All small paths
locate you into
larger spaces,
each narrowing
divide of wood or
stone or dreams
bridge the gap
between what is
possible in this
moment and what
is not
Peace (across each bridge),
Kevin
PS — I found the photo that inspired this poem via Alan Levine’s Don’t Look At My Photos tool that surfaces Flickr photos that may have escaped notice.
