ekphrastic

original from Rattle’s Ekphrastic challenge Facebook page

we stopped by this old gas station
yellow and red and grey –

you yawned because it was evening and we’d been driving all day
sick of each other and the radio -
ruined

‘jeez, look at this place,’ you said
(too afraid to look at ourselves)
