If You Want It

Lie

Lie

A dip at Hidden Beach under stars, falselight spinning on an axis sweeping between the sounds of falling cans. Contemplate this sacred life. Then hangfog emerging from deep night. Red ant avalanches on the parking lot edges and finally the realization that traffic was forming on the roads because people were going to work. Every morning like this for them : every morning like this for me.

Who Smells Who

Who Smells Who

An early walk down to the shore yields two ducks, a young woman meditating with yarn, and the sensation of captaining a ship.

Congratulations Brandon!

Kitten in the Background

Kitten in the Background

Was in a brawl last night. Cameras destined for concrete. Kids in a pile. Hearing replaced by moted feedback. Broken glass. Fellini’s 8 1/2 and Fight Club. Everyday offers overwhelming beauty but last night was on the edges of my understanding.

Useless Records: (Linda Ronstadt - Living in the USA)

Withdrawn

Withdrawn

“Withdrawn” is a collage on vinyl and is from the “Useless Records” series; in this case, Linda Ronstadt’s “Living in the USA”. “Living in the USA,” like other records in the “Useless Records” series, was chosen because of its unfortunate ubiquitousness in the bins of record shops nationwide.

“One withdrew into death. One withdrew into self-pity. And the most important one withdrew into solid black lines.”

Love, light and music
