Just there
No beginning.
A fey morning of used heat and a soil that's been reduced to dust.
My eyes are burning with misuse and the waning of trust.
My feverish eyes are crackling and I'm headed for the fissure.
Get out of my view.

Mucho más
Poor little patchwork Golden recovering from many surgeries and wearing a fentanyl patch on her leg.
Hollywood sale
This sold to Hollywood actress in Orange is the new Black. Ever since that Orry Kelly Necktie to a sweet swell on the board of the Heart Mansion my LA business bolted. I thank ye!
French Linen Cloth
The best smell is in the steam when ironing a French linen tablecloth. That, and hot brick after a brief rain.
Linens
Handmade lace pieced, tatted, intense tablecloth with richelieu broderie cutwork. Found in the wild for a buck.

Fiber Optic anything!!!
I had asked my dentist for a fiber optic grill.
Nothing to report.
Such a great medium that hasn't been actualized.

Shooting the gap
A life in photos, a sleep full of movies. The first word was an image on a cave wall.
The day I shot the gap between two thunder storms.
Christian Herman. Protected by the Universe.

Otis. 1976
During our 20s my sister and I both worked at DT Famous. I had told her each elevator had its own name and this one was Otis. She almost believed me.
