Picture for Will

Yesterday I went for a walk to return our library books. Before I left the house I decided I wanted to take a picture for Will, as a response to something he wrote on his blog. It could be a new little project, picture response to writing, writing response to picture. But I need more practice taking a picture for someone, because I never could take a picture with the intention that it was for Will. I only ever thought of that afterward. So, here are three pictures I picked out just now, for maybe my fave Will poem, "for Delta," which I would link to, except it seems that he's taken down his blog. But anyway.

  1. For Delta


    First
    Maybe you were born in winter
    Not gasping despite the spanking
    Your eys open wide
    The two tiny friendly skies
    Your Mother sailed through
    To your new mind
    & to see you breathe then,
    skinny baby,
    Before you died
    They inflated you with tubes
    & you went to pink from blue,
    lucky you,
    While it was white outside
