crops growing under warm light


"A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open."

Frank Zappa



You must have taken the wrong road 
You have arrived at a place where people eat filth 
And live in pens 
Like pigs 
The smell is terrible 
You want to go back the way you came 
But the road has one-way traffic only 
There is no going back 
You can stay 
Or travel on 
Those are the choices 
From the pens 
You are called by naked people 
Covered with their own mess 
One of them knows your name 
And says it again and again 
Returning to road 
Feeling lost you slowly begin to walk away 
First the right foot 
Then the left
Then the right again 
Sunlight filters down through the branches of the trees
Sunlight beautiful and warm

James Lee Jobe

Francesca Woodman


No one to be seen
And no one to see me
This valley farmland goes on and on
Peace
The sun at noon
Crops growing in the warm light
As far as the eye can see
