Once upon a Concertina -Last Posting


The curtain comes down on this tour of works on paper. The last dance slowly spins into the fading light. A lone concertina presses air to reed and casting a plaintive cry into the valley below. The trail narrows beyond the hill. The pilgrim in search of the creative muse moves on. Always watchful for a stirring or a subtle movement among the shadows. Listening.

To be continued in the spring.

Dreaming Flight


The windy canvas shaking. Poles teetering in the theater tent. Above the flying Follieros. Swinging parakeets. Wings tied of golden hemp. Playground fantasies. I sleep. I dream. To fly away and still be happy.

Der Ring des Nibelungen


FOUR EPIC OPERAS all under one tent all at once LA STYLE Mix it match it confuse it ABSTRACT IT color it fly it devour it release it obstruct and reduce it. The Bishop the Baker the Candlestick Maker. The ghost and clown the Hula Hoop Lollypop Girl with paper wings fluttering. Neon light burning. The one eyed SEERER seeing and Beelzebub prancing beneath the knight errant flying the golden horns honking through rolling traffic stalling yet beyond the Bavarian grave the MYTHOS RISING

Refugee


If your world is quiet and your belly full and you sleep tonight and dream. Then be happy. The refuge in flight the horror of the forsaken . Every hour a lifetime. Hope flickering, forgotten. Pray for her. Pray for all of them out there, on the run.
