Landscape by Alice Rose



Landscape


Our love is landscape,

like the dimensions of our gaze.


Wide like

deserts, oceans, mountain ranges,

flatscreens, wingspans, couches.


But when I blink, I do not see the horizontal

grid that my iPhone likes to impress upon my photos.


Our love is landscape,

like the dimensions of our gaze.


But a circle is not a rectangle.

are we a rectange?

inside a square?

inside a circle?


What is all that empty space?
