Jeannie Lynn Paske's Obsolete World

Obsolete World

The Artwork of Jeannie Lynn Paske

There is a world tucked away behind this one.

An old world made up of endless fields,

distant hills and timeworn cliffs.

A place where the sun is always setting.

A land in which extinct

slow-moving monsters and

elegant gentle-faced creatures

of all shapes and sizes reside.

Delicately balancing their hope with despair.

Reminiscent of long departed dreams

and uncollected thoughts.

Time stands still here

so as to let the residents gaze

in solitude

upon the vast

richly textured skies.

Forever in search of a place

to better sit and watch

their world pass them by.
