If you look deeply into the past, it can mesmerize.
Take a simple roof shingled a half century ago.
Weathered, sun beaten, rain battered, coming out of the days-gone-by
in waves, hypnotically; each hand-shorn shingle a story,
an event, an overlapping layer of what was.
There are patterns from the past here that can hold your gaze infinitely,
if you let them.
this is a really cool idea you have going here. I’m doing similar things, trying to match a picture to my writing though, the other way around.
