Jobless

So as the title suggest, I've lost my job. The small local studio I worked for just filed chapter 11 and shut its doors after 30 something years. It's sad. But with Northeastern Ohio's economy in the tank, it comes to no surprise. What was surprising was the fact the pink slip came with no warning. Just the other day I was talking to our assignment manager [who I just love!] and said she'll be looking for more photographers to hire! The studio was booked for all of the upcoming summer months!
Who would of thunk? Maybe something fishy was going one with the owners. I never saw them much and this studio could've been a laundry for all I know. Cleveland's a pretty corrupt city...
So now I'm jobless. While I punch out my resume on monster.com, I've started to peddle shit at flea markets and on ebay. I'm actually doing quite well, despite that fact I feel like a traveling gypsy...
And I have a bit more free time to shoot and be creative, so I have no excuse not to post some new work. I'm waiting on a few rolls to be processed...I can't wait to see what I got! Sure, I'll shoot some digital, but you know me---I love my film!
So besides that, things are okay. I'll keep you posted.
Enjoy this month's features. They're really good this month, so thank you to all who came out and posted!

...
Tree you are,
Moss you are,
You are violets with wind above them.
A child - so high - you are,
And all this is folly to the world.

...&to switch (sort-of) gears:

Where the slow river
meets the tide,
a red swan lifts red wings
and darker beak,
and underneath the purple down
of his soft breast
uncurls his coral feet.

HE tree has entered my hands,
The sap has ascended my arms,
The tree has grown in my breast--
Downward,
The branches grow out of me, like arms. . .

And the days are not full enough
And the nights are not full enough
And life slips by like a field mouse
......Not shaking the grass
