Mojaddid Shashwoto

Tall panes of daylight hold a quiet silhouette.

Iron squares divide the face and the concrete wall.

Blue steel carries dozens under the concrete flyover shadow.

A lone figure recedes between two tall rows of trees.

Two fingers rise inside a long dark outline.

Oars lift against low red sun over still water.

Curved timber tilts across empty noon sand.

Cold air swallows the sleepers ahead of walking silhouettes.

White netting pools beside the red hull on wet ground.

Small fingers press between bars in red clay mortar.

Standing still before a window full of bright green.

Vegetable crates clear the line as yellow headlights approach.

Green fields rush past the open carriage sill.

Dark ropes uncoil around a blue wooden prow.

Yellow planks rest where the tide turned back.

Black hulls dry in clover beneath tall pines.

White foam slaps the wooden ribs at low water.

Dusk turns the wide surface into red glass.

Half a dozen bows point together toward the woods.

Dark wet stones lead to one distant mast.

Cloth pennants flutter over wide gray sand.

Carved timber arches out toward the open water.

Thin twigs net the late gray light together.

Pale blossoms hang close above their own reflection.

Green fronds fan out under high white towers.

Folded currency pressed flat under fresh clover stems.

Heavy water beads cling to a single pink petal.

One thin silver arc in deep black.

Sharp yellow center among heavy green shadow.

Grey feathers huddle along a wet bamboo rail.

Footprints lead out toward vertical stakes in the wash.

Men steady the rudder through chopped gray crests.

Fallen white petals rest against green moss and dark leaves.

Heavy gray rain clouds gather over wide green rice fields.

Red blossoms stretch upward against clear open sky.

A bare trunk rises toward distant stars in the blue night.

One open pink rose blooms before a woven bamboo lattice.

Soft pink petals emerge from deep green garden shadows.

Dark smoke rolls from an iron boiler across open ground.

Afternoon sun filters through bamboo leaves over moored river boats.

Sunlit red brick facades angle up into vivid sky.

Thin smoke drifts upward into dense hillside trees.
