"Window" -- Poem by Joanna Vogel

Dangerous,
pockmarked wood and glass sheet
with a great jagged crack across its width.
Lavender paint splashed sloppily up onto the glass,
in front of molding molding
and beaten wood, striated by age.

Joanna,
"Window" creates a mood that is mysterious and makes me wonder about the story behind the poem. I love the power words--the sharp words of description that create a variety of images.

Yea, write more.
