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 [...]
Odd, failing is, failing was, failing will be.
I’ve had my moments of completion… Last weekend I was so close to smashing the assembled boxes and plexi boxes. Not that I am displeased with my results–granted I am not happy with the results, they could be better–but I sense the fact that the pieces [...]
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 [...]
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.

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. [...]
In addition to the Failed Poems Boxes, there is also a Failed Poems [Framed]. These are images on plexi that will overlap one another in order to create depth. The image First Layer: Simple Bilateral Mastectomy [unfinished] is a dividing cancer cell which will be framed an inch in front of the Second Layer: [...]
First day…. It was tough to just get everything together. I was able to put together 4 boxes. It took all day. I realize that I am going to have write something for the inside of the boxes. I also thought of dropping a clear piece of plexi through the middle of the box, perpendicular [...]
I realize that I spend too much time trying to avoid failures instead of just saying “Screw it” and move on.
