Maslow quote

"The highest quality that a human being can reach
is to be independent of the good opinion of others."

dream 06092010

i opted not to take the taxi when i saw my own car parked in the distance. i waved goodbye to my girlfriends in the taxi and walked toward my car. as i approached my car i could see it had been sideswiped. the driver-side door was torn off. when i got closer i saw the steering wheel was missing as well. the taxi with friends was well out of site by this stage, so i figured my only option was to beg for money for a phone call. a stranger kindly gave me 2 shiny new quarters.

prose 04082010

the reason to exist
escapes me sometimes.

i stumble through my clutter.

following the same unwinding ball of string.

never has yesterday felt so far away
or tomorrow so close.

nor fear so constant.

i wash the clothes
i dry the clothes
i iron the clothes
but they don’t fit.
they never did.
they never will.

someone elses
not mine.

Little Rosetta from the Socorro shelter is here with Shane and I, 5 sweet lab mixes went from the shelter to Pauline in Moriarity, next stop, Colorado. Jae/FFAA brought home a new baby kitten from Carlsbad.

scribble d'jour

just got an idea from my friend Kelly - he started posting a painting a day on his blog (http://kellymoore.net/blog)... so i was thinking maybe i'd start posting one of my scribble paintings every day.

course they might be mostly unfinished, but if your interested in buying any email me at artamiss47(at)yahoo(dot)com and maybe i'll actually finish one.

here's 3 i started on december 29th
