Photo Poems. When words and pictures collide.
Oh green I love you green
I love you green
in the dark
of sad Madrid
sweet god
of spain's sorrow
let there be an end
on the moonlight bridge
Sorry if that's incoherent.
Lorca's one of my passions.
and you, Garcia Lorca, what were you doing down by the watermelons?
Great link. This is a really neat idea (although the poetry feels fragmentary, whipped up on the spot for the photograph). I myself am both an avid photographer and poet and I definitely link the passions in my mind to a great extent. There have been several times I wrote a poem about and took a photo of the same event, and several poems that are stand-ins for photographs I didn't take -- but never photographs of the poems themselves!
I like this. I hope they leave their poems after taking the photograph.
