On Being
On Being an Artist
Noelle Kocot
Saturn seems habitual,
The way it rages in the sky
When we’re not looking.
On this note, the trees still sing
To me, and I long for this
Mottled world. Patterns
Of the lamplight on this leather,
The sun, listening.
My brother, my sister,
I was born to tell you certain
Things, even if no one
Really listens. Give it back
To me, as the bird takes up
The whole sky, ruined with
Nightfall. If I can remember
The words in the storm,
I will be well enough to sit
Here with you a little while.

Seen & Heard
* Great blue bird flying solo over blotted tulips, birch trees, and aquatic sky straight toward the corner of the frame.
* "The holidays sometimes break me more than I am." - a spirit in the material world

a darkroom diary
 |
| Oakland Lake, Queens, NY |
I took my Graflex Crown for another spin yesterday. It wasn't an upstream, but one must be methodical and careful to bring out her best qualities. I am neither. Knocking delicate devices, scratching smooth surfaces, exposing light sensitive things - that I do very well. Even with these special talents, the process wasn't so bad. In fact, at some point I imagined capturing all that is "darling" easily in the midst of a silky summer breeze.
