Duck

Carlos Alberto BUSTILLOS



Duck  

Empty hands,

poor duck.

With nothing

to give.

 

Heart,

so sad.

Duck and clumsy,

a famished sadness.

    Never thought of a duck as famished. Metaphoric perhaps. Well done

      Nicely done

      Carlos, this carries a quiet, clumsy sadness that feels very real… stripped down and honest. The simplicity lets the feeling speak without anything getting in the way. It stays with you. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
