Ocean Beach San Francisco: A Suminagashi Sunrise








"I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down and still somehow

It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all"

Joni Mitchell

Gazos Love Songs: Looking for Cy Twombly









“My line is childlike but not childish. It is very difficult to fake... to get that quality you need to project yourself into the child's line. It has to be felt."

When I began this poem,
                                    to see myself
as a piece of history, having a past
which shapes, and informs, and thus inevitably   
limits—
          at first this seemed sufficient, the beginning of   
freedom ...
                  The way to approach freedom
was to acknowledge necessity:—   
I sensed I had to become not merely
a speaker, the “eye,” but a character ...
