Complex moments break
down into vignettes when brief
words define their state.
“You suck!” becomes a
delightful metaphor for
taking it all in.
Hives. Itching. As if
her body can’t coexist
with her sense of self.
Post-audition, she
was mobbed with requests, star-to-
be in student films.
When her voice leaves her
body, recorded, it’s a
stranger who comes out.
Cut pin stitch fabric
stretch confines of clothing to
become catwalk art.
Hands on hip, baby,
sketchbook. Diapering, drawing,
birthing creation.
Late night TV a
wonderland of fast money
junkyard of trashed dreams.
Latex gloves. Cotton
swabs. Antiseptic. What would
MacGyver create?
…create. Impatient
that I won’t pay attention
when I’m writing stuff.
