This table

… is my point of view.

By Tim GracePublished 2 years ago 1 min read

This table is my point of view;

provides a horizontal plane.

It's the visual avenue

to the peculiar and mundane.

.

It's from where I watch the lives we live

assemble then disperse.

It's the single-point perspective

that stimulates my verse.

.

It's the in between scene

of a mental map,

where my elbows lean

and my fingers tap.

.

It's where clutter finds coordination,

and ideas meet their destination.

.

About the Creator

Tim Grace

A first impression has a lasting effect - it makes a notable difference. In a subtle way that’s who I am as a poet. A ‘first impression’ looking for the gentle ‘twist’ that draws attention to a novel observation.
