Reflections: Shadowlands

Photographs by Paul Hsu

Reflections: Shadowlands

1. Kingdoms
one draws bridge
two eyes edge

two kingdoms
water and sky

three kingdoms
clouds waves light

2. Cities
one draws bridge
two eyes edge

two cities
God and man

three cities
strange heartland

3. Towers
one draws bridge
two eyes edge

two towers
fear and love

three towers
beast crows dove

4. Mirrors
one draws bridge
two eyes edge

two mirrors
life writes death

three mirrors
doubt moves faith

5. Crossings
one draws bridge
two eyes edge

two crossings
right and left

three crossings
breath shapes flesh

flesh shapes breath
breath takes flesh

flesh takes breath
breath wakes flesh
