I may not be a photographer like the amazing Manisha, but I have always wanted to try a challenge like this one! So I have started it, with prompts for every day. And um, there might be matching poetry as well. We'll see how long this lasts ^.^

Day 2
Theme: Ornaments around the house
Title: Till Death Do Us Part
Matching Poem:

a whispered promise
a brush of your lips

then

a scattered lie
the slightest scream
the black hole yawning

and

i felt something die
with two abandoned rings
in my hand

Day 3
Theme: Your garden on a spring day
Title: Some sort of world out there
Matching Poem:

There must be some sort of world out there -
outside the green gates that
cage me here.

Someplace where the birds
disappear to over the wall.
Bring back worms
and shiny things
from all the countries of the world.

Someplace where I am free
to be myself, and reach beyond
the capacity forced onto me -
and my own shiny wings
allow me to fly

away.

Day 4
Title: I believe (Ik Geloof)
Theme: No prompt used.
Matching Poem:

I believe
in the act of being submerged
in the waters of my faith
and washing away the darkest
of stains, to be born anew.

in the consumption of a body
to make us all one –
a lenient shoulder to rest
our souls for time eternal.

in the smearing of blood from my Saviour
on my body, into my skin,
soaking through my heart.
To feel the bleeding pain
that we thrust upon him.

Oh yes, I do –
believe.

Day 6
Theme: Done without a prompt
Title: Lay Me Down
Matching Poetry:

The desk explodes in
colour.
The sinking sun; a vibrant rose,
a single shooting star.

Press my backbone into the grainy wood,
where metal circles soothingly click to
my wrist. An unforgettable
disease.

Scrape molten lead along my skin.
Brush dust like kisses into my memory.

Succumb me, mold me, be my teacher
and pin new knowledge to my brain.

Day 8
Theme: No prompt used (I have not being using them at all lately... oops...)
Title: Skin as hard as stone
Matching Poetry:

My skin
is made of
hard
stone.

Cool to the skin
and protected
from the
elements
of...

the weather
the catcalls
you.

My final breath
was taken
too long ago
to remember.

But now I
cannot drown;
safe from
the hate
of...

my parents
my "friends"
you.

I gave you
my everything
but you stripped
me of
my layers.

Now there is
nothing left
but
the...

pain and
hurt and
stone.

Day 9
Theme: No Prompt Used
Title: Two wheels and a journey to anywhere
Matching Poetry:

Take me anywhere
the four leaf clovers
frolic through the fields
and luck lingers
in the air.

the sun sprinkles kisses
soothing on my skin
and swells as it sinks
us in heat.

the music melts into my bones
and mingles with my mind,
each note a naughty noise
to my ears.

and this two-wheeled bike
can roll our hearts down the hill
and into our oblivion
of promises, happiness and joy.

Day 10
Theme: No Prompt Used
Title: Catching Sunlight
Matching Poetry: None

Sunlight slips between my dainty fingers and illuminates my skin.
As the rays stretched towards my face to push corners into smiles
my heart swells as I let the light in.

I saw colours;
detailed hues of greens, greys and purples:
purple like the underside of lonesome year-old rocks -
grey like the wool of my neighbours commonly-worn jumper -
green like the unwashable cheese stain on the table top.

And I closed my palm to catch the dancing sunlight,
let it stretch between my fingertips and drift
into the clouds.

I couldn't catch my breath -
so I caught sunlight instead.

Day 11
Theme: No Prompt Used
Title: Skin as hard as Stone II
Matching Poetry:

My skin is dry and cracks
so I cast it off and away
like the clean
sheets of papers;
ideas to my dreams.

Shrouded in darkness I
let the coolness caress
my edges that are rough.
Help me blend amongst
the other groups...

Bones breathing to their accordance
limbs pushing forwards
and striving for the truth.
Because all hard things can
break, but not all are
flexible like me.

(I'll cast off this skin
to make it soft.
Though it may hurt
the freedom shall be endless.)

Spite can slash into my skin
they can laugh; they can jear

but in the end there can be
no skin
better polished
than my own.

Day 12
Theme: No prompt used
Title: Even admirers see your secrets
Matching Poetry:

Even admirers see
through your paper thin
secrets.

You hold them up
with bent back
fingertips,

but we who examine
and pry with our eyes
see.

Your little hoard
of promised rings
torn

away from the fingers
that ever since wore them.
Missing.

The nights of sweet nothings
whispers dissolved into
the air.

And the love us admierers
hold, hold us distant from
you.

It's time you learned
to fill the gaping holes and
perfect

the mask that we all
hide behind for
self-preservation.

Because admirers don't want
secrets - we want your arms
around us.

Day 14
Title: Toshiba
Theme: Your Computer
Matching Flash Fiction (doing something different. References to computer-related things in here :D)

Toshiba was a funny sort of princess.

She had dresses that clung to her skin in the darkest shade of black and shimmered like a sheen of sweat. She embroidered her letters onto the hem, stamping out in silver T.O.S.H.I.B.A.

Everyone knew who she was and who she belonged to. Of course, she couldn't own herself;princesses had kings to sell them off to the highest bidders.

So instead of being a free woman she was forever plugged in to the castle.

She went running through other people's libraries and buried her nose so deep into their problems she almost could believe she didn't have any of her problems.

Toshiba was good at minimizing tabs that the King set on her. Good at closing windows to keep them from overhearing. Good at going incognito.

Toshiba was living a cliche.

And like a cat chasing a mouse, it clicked.
