Picture Prompt

Photo by: Michale Anthony Brown

Pretty simple contest here, just use the photo as you're muse. Absorb it in and go where ever it takes you.

Rules: 1 entry per poet
No chat speak
Use spell check
I am allowing prewrites
(however it must fit the photo, if I feel that you are just throwing me any old prewrite just for quick points I do reserve the right to DQ it.)

Otherwise have fun.

Gold: 300
Silver: 100
Bronze: 50

HM: 2

Weight of the World

Clothed chaos clings to child's aching breast
As all the world's weight hath laid its claim
