Yes, yes, I AM aware that I look like an idiot! I didn’t choose the garb or the flipping unicycle but they were the only things available (except for the playing cards) when I awoke naked and afraid in this strange place.

Oh well, at least the stripes are vertical. And yes, ya jerk I did consider leaving off the hat but its kind cold and it will help keep the chill away. You do see the fog, right? Is grey and damp and dark here

By the way, it took me hours but I finally broke out of the dungeon. I was fully expecting my abductors to be waiting to pounce but no one was around.

I have no idea where I am but there has to be some way out of here. BUT, just in case I’m using these cards in lieu of breadcrumbs.

I like this!
Cool! Wasn’t sure if it worked…
I like the use of cards in lieu of breadcrumbs. Great response Melanie.
Thanks, Michael. Not my normal poetic response…but that’s where the picture took me.
I echo Michael’s sentiments – the cards as breadcrumbs is a brilliant switch. And I also like how you used the different card symbols, i.e. ace, spades etc. to break each segment. It works well – and adds another element/dimension to the piece. Each “paragraph” stands alone, but they combine to form a complete story. Great and fun interpretation of the image. 🙂
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Nicely tied together. You definently steered away from “too much confusion”
Thanks!
