Favorite Quote:
"Dancing is the soul having happy convulsions." - Akila


Empty picture frames
litter the wall
like people
with no faces
or bodies
with no names.

The crabs have crawled
out of their shells
to find new homes;

while they are
temporarily
naked,
the shells are
vacant,
open mouths
waiting
to be occupied

just as the frames
crave
art.
