Son of a Kitsch!

...what ornithology is to birds.

About Me

I laugh loudly and don't know it sometimes. In an ideal world, I'd work at a museum or art gallery, hanging show after show. Currently, I'm attending college so that I'll be able to laugh loudly in my own gallery and no one will care. I enjoy making collages out of found papers and such. I consider myself an artist, but I have a long way to go until I can be entirely pleased with the work I've made. I don't like indecisiveness. I love people that need people. I believe that the glass is half-full, but I'm not entirely sure what it is full of and for the rest of my life I'll try to figure it out even though I know I never will.
Constantly risking absurdity by: Lawrence FerlinghettiConstantly risking absurdity and death whenever he performs above the heads of his audience the poet like an acrobat climbs on rime to a high wire of his own making and balancing on eyebeams above a sea of faces paces his way to the other side of the day performing entrechats and sleight-of-foot tricks and other high theatrics and all without mistaking any thing for what it may not be For he's the super realist who must perforce perceive taut truth before the taking of each stance or step in his supposed advance toward that still higher perch where Beauty stands and waits with gravity to start her death-defying leap And he a little charleychaplin man who may or may not catch her fair eternal form spreadeagled in the empty air of existence

yellowed

I didn't realize it when the cut on my eye had healed itself away. It's funny how we don't realize when pain alleviates. It is in the process of brusing, though, and it's in the yellow stage. Abby ...
