I’m busy these days with final edits to some poetry that will accompany the images for the premiere of Loss and Beauty in Gilbert, Arizona. The show opens September 5 with a reception at The Art Gallery 4…hope to see you there!
This poem will accompany the image titled Laundry:
Rituals
A stove, a teapot
light through a laundered chemise
whisper the rituals of daily life
a basin, a stool
stripes and shadows on coarse cloth
declare a different, sinister intent
bruised, shorn and stripped,
one by one they walked
cloaked only in dignity
to a wall that marked the passage to death
