Mother of Walls
A history book of graffiti You are a Mother of brick Divided you stand between Separating time from love Place from exodus Torn and crumbling Beauty and hate Your skin reveals Skeleton and heart.” For me, the wall says it all and well represents the theme of this week’s Photo Challenge, “Transmogrify.” But there are…
