What Happened?, By: Phillip Jordan

March 17, 2026 by Phillip Jordan

What Happened?, By: Phillip Jordan

I was tipped off by an instinct

allowing me to observe a picture framed,

through static dust, hanging obliquely on a crooked rusty nail in the wall.

The waning crescent a moth flew a crow caws in the PMs errant warming breeze.
