Alone w/ Hope (image by rmp, that's me) |
Inspiration for this piece: Lately I've been pondering hope. And while it seems wrong, it does quite feel as though it is burning me from the inside out - an all consuming fire that rages, suffocating me. I know there is a poem hidden somewhere in this feeling, but it has yet to surface. In the meantime, I dug up this picture, which was used as inspiration for a previous piece (totally unrelated to hope). I took what little words I had and crafted this.
Behind the image: I couldn't help myself...I had to take this picture of a way-to-busy-&-gaudy casino carpet...most people I've asked see an owl. I see a face burning in hellish flames clawing to escape.
