Your pictures kept showing up on Facebook walls around the world today…finished reading your entire blog. A rare co-mingling of enthralling images and clever writing. Brilliant work!
While never losing impact, I also enjoy your poetic ease of finding humor in the gaps of the atrocious and poignant…perhaps that should concern me?
Never have I been further from India
than I am at this very moment
but I smell the mud and hear the noisy mothers
nagging their children.
The boy wants his picture taken and the photographer
will oblige provided the boy hold,
in his free hand, the rusty metal pole
taken from the pile of debris falling
from the building behind him. It’s the color
of a New England sunset, the orange plastic
gun. Put it to your ear like a sea shell
listen for the melodies of Purandara Dasa.
