Margaret, Kenneth Lonegran, USA, (2011).

A mess in New York,
The chaos of growing up,
With mood, guilt, and loss.

Reset, Thierry Demaiziere, France, (2016).

Visual splendour:
The politics of ballet.
P.O.B. goes mod.

The Zen of Tillage,
Transcending world suffering-
Two Masters Talking.

Lost in Munich, Petr Zelenka, Czech Republic, (2015)

Revenge by parrot-
For Czech WWII sellout.
Truth is rarely true!
