The visual capture and coupling of the power of voice by presenting combined magic lantern slides captured on a digital camera. Most are one color slide and one black and white slide projected using a Bausch & Lomb Balopticon to add motion. Hopefully Megan Watts Hughes, Akira Kurosawa, Joseph Boggs Beale, William Blake and I have met in some alternate universe and created something, anything...
dragonfly in amber
a boy needs a father
a man needs a son
I am neither and in need of none
she laughs a lot
I light her cigarette
she smokes, I do not
we whisper when we speak
if we speak at all
the watchers hide
behind mosaic eyes
I am tired
it is the war I know
this is not Eden
and there are no apples
a Buddhist monk
sitting in defensive posture
a lotus flower
douses himself in gasoline
burns a hole in my mind
my heart drowning in tide pools
my soul dries in low tide
we are all child soldiers
saving the world from more wars
a yellowish-brown sheen
just below the surface
wings shimmer in the light
I still search
for a temple to call home
