Dinner with Wulf arriving early I of course started to make images. Wulf brought Eva and the three of us had a grand time. The food was very good. Ah but the light moved off the empty table and into the doorway and our eyes finally finding its way behind a building ending natures evening bright bursts. enjoy pjc
THE WIDE SWINGING DOORS
—at the Harp on Church in Willimantic
Afternoon blasts in with the random patrons
coming through the wide swinging doors
down the two rows of booths
shutter blinks aimed at the bar
diners and drinkers lit up
and Eva, Peter and I at our table
are beside the framed sky
when the doors open up
to deliver us the billowed clouds
and the lengthening sun
that clings to the street as we leave.

Is it weird that this image almost appears patriotic to me? When I look at it quickly I think of the American flag..I’m sure it is the curtain…but the light was indeed perfect…..
Peter says
Yes I suppose it is a bit weird. But the stripes and the National glint of today’s world I can see it in a subconscious way. This image and poem were made prior to me even thinking about a doors book. 2013 I was still in Ct. with no plans to move. pjc
