10 Collages:I:Repetition
“The shape of the square confronts the silhouette of the amoeba.”- Alfred H. Barr Spittle mounts a curl upon a lip, promoting “as if,” what amounts to a tug from gravity.

The Act of Conforming to the Museum without Walls
1. Window shopping exhibits an exploitation of empathy. Reflections disguised as shadows, but instead of parodying the mirror image, credit scales a bargain: being: A). Cogito, ergo sum B).

Art as it Appears on Main St.
Dollar General fixes the market share for water-paints. Bristles stay in cheap color, when dipped in tap water, mark the givings with charcoal hue. The concoction adapts to room temperature.

An empty hallway stages the door swing, forehead forward marks wrinkles; While laugh-lines rise like puppet-strings. COMPLIMENTS! Mouse holes for […]

History Restricts What Time Gives (and love too)
1. A railing design, wracked in nuance, habituates purpose to normalize the human lean. A bird perches on the pole, uses it as a stage to croon and seduce potential lovers. An ant wanders out of rank and file, begins to climb up the rod in honor of the Hive, to service the Queen. It […]

cHoke me with a good pOem
Art succumbs to loose ends mechanized to counter the better option and secure the knot. Colors and shapes adorn patterns that discover balance, knot secured.
