“…Even Richard Nixon’s
got soul…”
– Neil Young
all the photographers
became poets; there was
nothing else to do with
their knack for composition.
all the poets became
photographers; there was
nothing else to do with
their terrible beauty.
all the photographs became
poems; the images are only
many phrases.
all the poems became
photographs; the words
are only many pictures.
