Picking Flowers

Picking Flowers is a raw, rhythmic look at visibility, survival, and the small human gestures that persist in the face of adversity.

Picking Flowers
the people and places we pass without seeing

In her latest hauntingly beautiful piece for Aphrodite Press, Sarah Axelrod turns her attention to the people and places we pass without seeing. Picking Flowers is a raw, rhythmic look at visibility, survival, and the small human gestures that persist in the face of adversity.

Picking flowers from a can

Mumbling invisible man

Wrinkled face

Knotty yarn

Skies of blue

Scabby arm

Walmart tent

Caught the flu

Pens for writing

God bless you
