A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

• WHAT I SEE : A young man standing in the rain, in front of what looks like his car.

• WHAT I FEEL : he is probably watching hopelessly as someone leaves or he has come to the end of himself.


Should I or Should I Not


Tick Tock,
Tick Tock,
Goes the round big clock,
Talking off the street wall.

Spish splash,
Spish Splash,
The heavens spat,
Thank you umbrella.

Dark day,
Dark day,
But hey,
What more can I say.

Should I,
Or Should I not,
put up a fight,
Lost in thought.

This piece really captures a moment of emotional conflict and uncertainty. The imagery of the rain, the ticking clock, and the young man standing there creates such a strong visual and mood. I love how the short, rhythmic lines make it feel like the thoughts are bouncing back and forth in his mind. The “should I or should I not” question feels so relatable, like he’s caught in that difficult decision-making process. Beautifully done—so much emotion packed into this moment!
