Inevitably, projects begin to intersect. In the midst of the work that I continue to work on, my life dictates the work that I perform and execute. In 2007 my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. My work took a back seat. There was a most evident threat: cancer, our lives, [...]

My meter is broken {couplets are broken} I Failed the Poem
November 25, 2009 – 1:05 pm
My skin pressed up against your flesh
as if we are of the same mind and desire
Keep the doubts and fears to the left of right
I just can’t be here with you tonight
There are better things than this
my life lit up with a reset
and its like a reject button
like a factory line production
I’d like [...]
Failed Poems Project {waiting}
November 21, 2009 – 10:31 am
Until the plexiglas comes in… I feel like I am at a standstill. Which really isn’t all that true. I guess I don’t feel that the Boxes are all that successful, which is too bad since they were the original focus of this whole project. Now they have taken a back seat to the plexi [...]
Day 5: Failed Poems Project {contemplation}
November 15, 2009 – 12:03 pm
I’ve talked with another artist friend about this project and he suggested that I look at Art Brut. Although I have had training, I still feel lost in a world that seems to have no place for me. So the question remains, why do I even bother? Because at a certain point it comes down [...]

Don’t have much time. But this is what I got done….
This is a little Pinktober idea… “Breast Cancer Gas mask…. 1/2 of 1% of the sale of this item will go to some charity that helps breast cancer…. with a maximum of $50.00…. buy it today and feel like you are doing something!
The photo [...]
Day 4: Failed Poems Project
November 13, 2009 – 10:45 pm
Here’s a pic of the inside of box 1. I am not sure if I am happy with it but I am sick of this box and I have moved on to the next box. Maybe I will come back and rework this box later. For some reason, titles seem pretty worthless right now.
Above are [...]
Failed poems, boxed in.

I could have you, but never keep you.
I could trust you , but never believe you.
I could marry you, but never be you.
I could try you, but never convict you
I could say it was okay, but but never believe it
I could run away, but never get away
I could say it doesn’t exist, but there you [...]
Failed Poems Stuff
November 11, 2009 – 8:47 am
Just thought I would add this to stuff I will use with the Failed Poems project:
But funny enough on its side it looks like a robot ready to hug you…. OR DESTROY YOU!!!!
I find it interesting that the symmetry of the Carboplatin model makes it look so easy. When we go back to the [...]
Day 3: Failed Poems Project
November 7, 2009 – 3:54 pm
Well I was able to assemble one box [sorta] and see what the images and poems inside look like. I still am rethinking the “front door” hinge. I can’t tell how good everything will look once it is complete. Although I am sure that I will be very sick of pink once this is over. [...]
