Dark Blue Haven

This cheerful tidy little house is tucked down a flight of stairs between two businesses on the highway (carretera) that runs through Ajijic in Jalisco, Mexico.

Green Door

 

Green Door

Not a wall. A door at most.
Barely more than lath and post.
Peep hole worn by questing fingers––
a lost soul whose presence lingers.
What has this fortress kept inside?
What prisoner trapped? What captive died?
We have no idea––none at all
of what was kept behind this wall.
As paint peels off and dust invades,
the story ages, wanes and fades.
The story too grim to express?
They leave it up to us to guess.

Thursday Doors, Nov 1, 2018

I know the door itself is plain, but I love this door at the entrance to my niece’s house.  I think it is the mirrored starburst above which fits in so well with the door’s design and gives an illusion of a small window above the door. It just looks like it was engineered at the same time as the door.

Version 3 IMG_7840 IMG_7841 IMG_7834In a place where square does not rule the day anyway, it was very hard to get a square take on these doors without having the door blocked by the very ugly black street sign.  The more ornate older sign added to the view, but the ugly black one definitely didn’t!!
