"failed relationship" — Black & White Haiga September Challenge Feature

 failed relationship— the cold space between a warmed bed 

failed relationship— after a loud exchange evening downpour 

failed relationship— the iridescent cicada's hollow shell 

failed relationship— the shimmering mirage of illusion 

failed relationship— moving on, the dulled memory of last summer 

 

Delighted to share my five-part consecutive monochrome collection featured as entries 17 through 21 in the September Challenge (Part 1) at the Black & White Haiga/Haisha Blog, beautifully curated and hosted by Lavana Kray (https://ourbesthaiga.blogspot.com/2026/08/september-challenge-part-1.html)!
