To the PAST Untitled Oil on Canvas 30″ x 40″:

I Ran. The whore. Called to the door. Locked. Loaded. Imploded. Places abound with nowhere around to hide. Spaces that bore my breasts inside. Chiding. Deriding. She. Knowing what craft He made of Me. I return. Unlocked but bound. Steel. To heal.


To the FUTURE Unbridled Oil on Canvas 24″ X 48″:

Eternal yolk. Knots unwound. Unwounded. Salved and saved. God, help me. Be She. Through caves of clay and blood and ashes. And trust. Mud and fire and salt. Stardust.
