Today I purchased a footstool

From a disused church

And decided to photograph it

On a railway platform

 

I waited for a train to arrive

On the opposite platform

And photographed the footstool

I immediately regretted my decadence

 

Decadence 2

It later occurred to me

That the train and the footstool

Would never meet again

And that God was not concerned

 

Decadence 3

Later I sat on a pier

As I had always wanted

To sit above the sea

With my feet resting on a footstool
