Adrift
written by: Robyn MacKinnon
I can’t imagine
anything except a drunk
adrift on still waves
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
Illustration description: A scene on the water – pale sky, choppy waves, a dinghy adrift, carrying a lone figure drinking from a large bottle. The haiku sits top and center in white Catfisch Script Pro Regular font. The atmosphere seems to have the texture of crumpled paper, and the figure in the boat appears cut from an old, sepia-toned photograph. What little can be deciphered of their features indicates that they have long, dark hair and are wearing a dark T-shirt. The figure sits at the far left end of the boat, and the elbow of the arm holding the bottle hangs over the side of the boat. Created in Adobe Photoshop Elements.
I am mostly a visual artist, but I like to create "found poetry", specifically daily haiku made from the statuses of my Facebook friends. It was my Mom who started this, and officially passed the responsibility onto me when she became too busy.
