Скачать или смотреть WE POUR HOT TEA…

Today’s audiovisual creation.

Using a poem I wrote in 2016 and including an oil painting I made of a friend in 2012, pencil drawings I made in 2008 + 2009, and a brief appearance from my handmade doll, Rose.

Enjoy !

WE POUR HOT TEA…

We pour hot tea from our china teapots
in our separate bedroom, in our separate lives;
feeling differently yet feeling the same,
thinking differently yet thinking the same,
being different yet being the same

In separate bedrooms, in separate lives,
we pour hot tea from our separate teapots;
reading or writing poetry,
reading and writing in poetry,
being poetry

In our separate lives, we pour from china teapots hot tea
in our separate bedrooms; drinking and reflecting,
thinking and daydreaming, floating up and away
from the wet streets outside

China teapots of hot tea,
as we both pause in our separate bedrooms;
remembering all we shared together
before settling back into
our separate lives
