March 11 / 2024  Mallords

Storey Tarris Commuter Series March 11, 2024
It's not funny. They watch the mallord walk the railroad rails and sit down to nest.

They talk and watch and feel like they lived life standing still.

"Wait until their dead,"That is their way of life hiding behind the CCTV.

Ravens, let them know that zapping will get them killed. Why did you ignore her this morning as she sat in the danger zone.

Guests, Never Listed / March 7 / 2024

Morning alone on the line
Ringing Zip Zip Zip Zap
Impossible Woman's life
means I mean something.
Excuses scrubbed history,
Starched and pressed thursday
creased down the middle.

Digital Men  / February 27 / 2024

Office focused individuals inhabiting space and hierarchy.

*Remembber structure and social placing*

Investigate the whys later - low lying connections and raven's warnings.

Every digital man covered in data.  Arriving in time for Tuesday's work day groove.

Methodical pace between buildings on beaten paths chosen.

Chilled air - two different lives.

Morning Airwaves / February 26 / 2024

Advice waiting somewhere in the morning airwaves.
Examples of disinterest not telltale, just peek at the monitors.

Nothing is open to debate. Faux pas filled data doses transfer morning to assistance needed.

Exclude anything that might be red boxed.

Fenzeit   – February 23 / 2024

Recasting a life with Fenzeit and smack.
Gamefree dashing through half squares,
swiping flying starts - takeoff.
Ideal morning start signalled on train platform.
Recharged steps launching up and over the bridge walk.

Between the Two / February 20 / 2024

Buildings on standby - archiving by brick and colour.
Life to 47 passes by -what happened in 48.
How long do I have bricklayer?
My photos archive the bricks and colours
Will you let me write down on paper,
The story facades of today?

Time Delay / February 19/ 2024

Two trains leaving for the same end,
five cars turn to  more than I can count somewhere in between
sitting down and looking for the station exit.

by Emmy Horstkamp 19/2/2024

Timetown delay. 
A day without an aperature.
Enclosed by strangers.

Retake Day February 17 / 2024

Negotiating nothing new.
Crossing neither with badges or ribbons.
Years entwined rolling in digital space.
Heading to puzzle town, no hesitations.

Commuter Series 17/2/2024

The collaboration photos and poems are written daily and will be available in 2025 as a book published by FoxRavenPress.  

The above poem was written from a longer Storeyean poem. Four poems were written today based on a daily commute between two locations.

Looking for Monday / February 12 / 2024

Architecture from someplace or another elsewhere.
Cracks between the clouds,
five to seven everyone is there waiting,
everything stayed,for something.

Moments ceased over the weekenders, paused, sitting tight, lying low.
Now, holding phones, looking for Monday morning's push.

By Emmy Horstkamp 12/2/2024

This morning I wrote four poems. The poem above is from the longer Storeyean poem.

Because my commute was longer, I left some of the calendars at home and decided to write those poems in my regular notebook. All of the photographs for the poems will be printed on stamped later in the week.

Today transformed into a sunny day.
