the sign read one way but there was
no other way that I could see
so I continued on because
the sign read one way but there was
a hint that once divine divas
had trod this wrong road right for me
the sign read one way but there was
no other way that I could see
thanks to Matt for the inspiration

I decided to continue on after a year, because this document had become a treasured reflective spot in my life. There are some changes in "Year 2," expanding options for my weekly poem beyond sonnet to add some other forms-- rondeau or triolet, villanelle. I added the decima in late January 2010, and the pantoum in August. Definitions of each form appear below. I continue to post a photo daily, but may post several pictures taken on one day over the course of a week if I have an interesting series. I may even post an old photo if I'm writing about something I'm thinking back to. I'll continue to have fun with this project; I hope you will too. For Year 3 I tried including other people in the self-portraits that accompany my poems, adding "Musical Sundays" to post mp3s of my music, but these petered out in a few months. This is simply a place for my daily thoughts & photos, and weekly poems in the forms I love. Onward...!
What was that line in the song…”sometimes words have two meanings…” …perhaps the same is true of signs.

Nice one! Glad our weird song lent inspiration.

Oh, and I’ll be reading it as part of our performance at Couscous poetry/music night at AS220 this Tuesday, if that is okay.

Perhaps even signs have hidden meanings or secret codes.

Or they possibly don’t even believe themselves…
