Texture Evolution

Lest we forget old Bob Southey's old fable
concerning a trio of anthropomorphic bears
and a vixen represented as
a tween girl or elderly woman historically
Timeless yet admonitory course on
Harmony Ownership and Privacy

--

Goldilocks
Flowery Feminine and Petite
a hungry and tired interloper
Trapped under-served drifter
or greedy entitled long-con artist
of dubious purpose and intentions





--

A hardworking Papa
Consistent Deliberate and Reliable
aching for a tufted warmth
Beneath his furry sadness
The weight of everything
flattening mountains into bedrock





--

The dearly beloved Mama
Elegant Beautiful and Sturdy
balancing and managing complexities
For self and sector
ever-nurturing chief executive
warm and sweet inside like a decadent pastry





 --

And our Baby
Chosen Golden and Perfect
all windows wide open
With freedom to roam wide and far
youthful future unlimited
a tiny shooting star in all of infinity






--

Cautionary and instructive
lessons of craft and persuasion
The outlaw caught
Or the one who got away
Perhaps the moral defending
Trial Discovery and Paradigm Management

Forty Five Oh Five

http://tyhardaway.tumblr.com/
It has been 4,505 days since 9/11© and all I can think about is art:

No Grants
No Shows
No Likes
No Favorites
No Competitions
No Hearts
No Charts
No Reblogs
No Pics
No Hits
No Sales
No Comparisons
No Contracts
No Deadlines
No Retweeting
No Screens
No Fame

If you cannot carefully stuff it into your suitcase and transport it by bus or train or airplane or car

If you cannot carefully wrap and ship it to the other side of the continent for someone to love

Your beloved art should thrill even with the electric and network grids switched to “off”

Connection Through Disconnection

http://tyhardaway.tumblr.com/
I. Connection through disconnection
A trust thorough and complete with
all of the pieces ultimately fitting
together with near perfection

The execution phase becomes one of
careful and dutiful assembly of a
blank jigsaw puzzle still in its sealed plastic bag
Still in the unopened box

II. Magical times where
Thought and intent synchronize
An always forward propulsion despite
Physics and all human burden

Attempted barricades of little consequence
Fun made impossible
The choices we make are sad but true
Playing out in near-perfect analogy

III. The union of dyads
Rather than the generally ignored
billboards along packed highways
Color and sound for deaf and blind

Eye-to-eye and word-for-word
When all along
swimming in the deep end
was always the goal
for the summer
