garden of everything

sun glistened on the brown and green glass.

light became fuzzy black spots in the corners of my eyes as i glanced up at the sun dancing on the debris.

trash. transformed into unearthly caves from far away galaxies.

pieces of broken blue and white china.

discarded bottles.

bicycle wheels.

toys and dolls cast aside and forgotten… replaced with lipstick and self-loathing.

tiny treasures resurrected from collected heaps of the unwanted.

fourteen years of garbage converted into a mystical garden of everything.

every step.

every pathway.

packed with scraps of wonder.
