Indigo dying in process

Cloths for indigo dying

I actually finished these a long time ago, but I got the opportunity to dye them this afternoon. I haven't dyed them yet, I'll put up a post afterward. The stitches on the undyed cloth are really visually interesting just on their own, they could almost be an art form in and of themselves. 

Dinner Day

Flash, burn. Tastebuds now

Erased from existence. No 

Flavor for next week.

Day Job

A dance through kitchen. 

Hands dipping, dripping water. 

Flow through space, order. 

Only Part of the Picture

Long day, neutral shades. 

Fall, winding down after 

Summer long party. 

Veil

Innocent, like pink 

Cheeks and white hands, dovetailing 

Heart, mind seamlessly.

Not that bitter about daylight savings time, just generally wiped out.

Too tired to do this. 

Doing it anyway, new

Sunrise, sunset, damned.

November Second

Gathering thoughts, but 

Unlike swiss chard harvest, no 

Frozen memories. 

Spoiled Soup

I set the lid on top

And it vanished

Until the next morning, 

When my brother confronted me 

Stern, narrow face, 

And then my mother, 

"Why did you leave the soup out last night?" 

It wasn't very good anyway... I replied, 

Attempting to veil one shortcoming with another, 

Then ducking out the door

To disappear the pot's contents once again, 

This time into the stomachs of our chickens.
