Pink Blossoms on the sea

Screams are silenced as the panicked movement of arms and legs freeze.

Convulsion ends.

Fever is suppressed.

Pen wails: twenty-three withered cherry blossoms on the page are staring back.  

The sea is inhaled by pink blooms.

Tragedy Pickers

DIPACT had a performance yesterday at Whitworth Art Gallery. As part of our group performance I read my "Tragedy Pickers" piece. I was a cherry blossom who loved reading letters that can no longer be delivered. Our work was in response to Isaac Julien, Ten Thousand Waves currently shown in the gallery.
