Maybe The Writing On The Wall Can Use a Little Revision?
“ May the wind be at your back, may the back be in your past, may the kids take all your good, may your wife have class, when you realize your goals, of what’s life without rhyme…

“ She looked at me like I was crazy. Most of my lovers do, and that’s partly why they love me, and partly why they leave.

“Fear is your best friend or your worst enemy. It’s like fire. If you can control it, it can cook for you; it can heat your house. If you can’t control it, it will burn everything around you and destroy you. If you can control your fear, it makes you more alert, like a deer coming across the lawn.”
I started painting this in Portland, OR. That was about two years ago. A love of mine painted the image in my head with his words. It stuck with me. It is quite a deep and emotional image, this one. I never finish her. But I always come back to her. Usually when I am feeling most sure of myself.
She means so much. She is so still and stoic on the brink of chaos. There’s a bigger story to her, though I’ll tell it as I continue to work on her. I always wish I could be like her. Maybe I am in some ways.
I don’t just speak in code. I often live my life in code. Everything is symbolic- it is all a part of some bigger message in my head and heart. It all means something, my actions, even if I don’t know it. They do.
Sometimes I live in a fantasy land. And a lot of times I don’t see why I can’t make those fantasies realities. So I strive for that. After all, they say the greatest love affair is the one you create in your mind. Well I think I can have that in real life. So I’ll continue to fight for it. Maybe people think that’s crazy. I don’t care.
That’s my dream dog right there. Perfect pit.
