    A New Map

    You know that awful art work you have hidden away? The one you conceived with such excitement, and began with such high hopes? Now, it languishes, out of sight, and you feel guilty, mad, or sad any time you think of it. What artists with works like this need to face is whether their life is following the same pattern. Those early ideas, the ones that don’t feel good anymore, can be tossed. Yesterday’s map made sense at one point in the journey, but your destination has change

    She Didn’t Cut Up Her Face

    The cardboard has ridges, wrinkles, stains, and rips along the edges. It reminds me of my face and body, how quickly they have succumbed to the elements, to time. But my spirit burns brightly.
