Get that girl a drink

underwater gardening

mobile of images

She wears the dress with the

central elephant

the golden sun at her hands --pendants fortuna

I can’t sleep when the wings are rocking the bed

Legs folded into pockets

A weeping mouth doorway

Constance feeds me trinkets

A battle outside warns us

Roman shadows strewn down the road

Restless churning of words say nothing 

of the noise inside

when connections are scattered I remain in song

this is blue bird. little energy of cells that dissolve in drugs. 

I never imagined you were there with me --I imaged you as a gathering of selves. 

the intersecting lights and shadows across the walls 

form patterns representing the new community.    

rare sightings

These are field studies capturing seldom seen sightings, images in passing, and small pages out of underwater garden studies. These studies captured the intricate life of one girl who swam from her small town creek to an interesting dance scene where women gather each summer to collapse under the weight of their own heart beat, sweating and thrashing their bodies to drive out their sadness.
I will call these rare sightings. If you enter the keywords RARE SIGHTINGS into a google image search, expect a return of pages filled with wildlife photos, mythological beings, fugitives, apparitions, secret gatherings, nudes on motorboats, water dragons, sacred spaces, and celebrity tabloid photos.
