Monday

WFMU-FM 91.1/Jersey City, NJ; 90.1/Hudson Valley, NY



i just received the prints from my New Orleans shoot

i am finding them so deeply moving and intimate

some two, three and four image sequences

are perfect in juxtaposition and in context and in composition



but, i am hopelessly depressed - heartbroken even

the shots are boldly blurry, distorted and obtuse

wholly as intended - as close to perfection as i've ever realized



but who will understand?

the first viewer declared

"you take shots of anything, huh?"



i could die

i could cry

i could quit



can i take a juried rejection

or critical misinterpretation

or the simplistic conclusions of untrained?



if they live in only my world

do they live?
