A Good Question,
The Opposite Of Down,
It's Relative,

Real Power

BC had an election yesterday
and the world goes on
despite this thing,
maybe to spite these
things.

What are you looking at

It's good to alive
be it beautifully sad
or sadly beautiful
take your pick.

People are often seeking to be loved,
I think they are more often seeking to express their love.
We know we are loved
at some intrinsic deep down underground level,
we are loved.
Loved by ourselves at any rate.
But what we truly really want, is to express our love,
to foolishly, passionately express love.
To express it in the passing of eyes
the meeting of u's.
It's funny you know
this is how we are loved;
I love you
and
you love I.

How to rain love on any
play them as it were a time yet
to be said?
I am all man as iron
is beneath, just a suit of rust.
Most will pound it about,
but me, he needs.

On The Importance Of Shooting Too Many Photographs

I posted a comment to the article "Stop Them Before They Shoot Again", blog.photoblog.org, May 5, 2005, last night and figured not many people will see it. So I though I'ld post it here as well.
"Paraphrasing an artist whose name I forget, he said sometimes it is enough just to see the sunset. No we don't need to take pictures of everything, but let people have their fun. Some of those pictures will become important historic documents. The pyramids are fantastic, and the real treasure archeologists are finding is the work site next to the pyramids with the tools and letters, etc. of those people. [Else where] we are finding letters sent home by Romans out on campaigns and still marveling at cave paintings. They, like us were just living going about their business recording their experiences. The professionals will know when and how to edit their material setting standards/examples for those who choose, to follow. In the rest we can find a connection, a common place to meet. It might help bring some peace or peace of mind to people. There are some good points made in [the] other comments posted to the idea of too much. So I guess I've added, only wanted to add, that people are enjoying themselves and that, that is okay."
This morning, again going through people's pictures I have come across the notion that despite all our uniqueness in terms of abilities, we are all pretty much the same, equal. To me that's comforting.
