the wasteland


april is the cruellest month, breeding
lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
memory and desire, stirring
dull roots with spring rain


my friend, blood shaking my heart
the awful daring of a moment's surrender
which an age of prudence can never retract
by this, and this only, we have existed
which is not to be found in our obituaries
or in memories draped by the beneficent spider
or under seals broken by the lean solicitor
in our empty rooms


how many wars do we have to survive to learn about peace?
how many soldiers do we have to bury to learn about love?

we can sit back and watch while these wars tear apart the beauty of our world and gawk as we see it for what it really is; we can stand to the side while we are one by one reduced to faceless creatures with animal survival urges, famished and animated by a mass terror.    





what are the roots that clutch, what branches grow
out of this stony rubbish?...

the wardrobe



if the world is a stage and we are the performers
then we better dance for the puppeteer master
dance and bow and smile and laugh
because we are just cowards in sheep costumes
laughing and dancing
thank you and thank you and thank you good night

the wall



The next series of drawings represent the walls that we surround ourselves with.  They may be the walls that we build to protect ourselves, the walls on which we display our proudest moments or the walls that conceal our deepest secrets.

How do these walls reflect our image?
How does an outsider interpret the objects we collect?

Perhaps these walls have witnessed more than we'd like to share, perhaps they speak louder than we would ever dare.






can we find our reflection in the things around us?  can we deny the fact that we are shaped by the activities we choose? is it so difficult to imagine the strength of the energies we transmit to each other?
