13.11: A Thursday Door

red front door, climbing rose, red polka dot boots, house is a blue colour
Porte de l'Inconnu

Oak,
dark
as forgotten prayer.
A geometry of power,
of denial,
of great diamonds
crossed
like swords
over a heart.

What secret
petrifies
behind the door?

The wood will not tell.
It only says:
Turn.
Away.

Bushboy (Brian Dodd) shares photos of doors, but not just any doors. Spectacular doors from his journeys. Dan’s Thursday Doors opened the door on this. I love doors of all sorts. I’ve trawled through my photos and found a few to share.

  2. That door is magnificent, Misky. I like you poem, too. The angled flow mimics the door.
