gotta wonder…

How did this picnic table end up in this empty field?

What possible reason would someone want to have a picnic in this particular place?

How does one enjoy having a picnic in an open field with no shade?

Why would someone put a picnic table on a curve so close to a dirt road?

I think that one’s lunch would become very unpleasant when they found themselves in a dust cloud stirred up by a passing truck.

Is there a final destination for this picnic table?

cbwc: weather

In the attitude, and with the manner, of the woman of old,

Full of grief, she stands in the glorious morning light.

The dew is like the tears of to-day;

The mosses like the garments of years ago.

Her resentment is that of the Woman of the Hsiang River;

Her silence that of the concubine of the King of Ch’u.

Still and solitary in the sweet-scented mist,

As if waiting for her husband’s return. ~ Li Tai-po*
