Artist's Comments

go ask alice

she was like the fire
searing moments of electricity
carried in her purse
notes of the underground
writing scribbles in between the pages,
she knew the names of everyone she ever met
making small paintings on paper
swirling kaleidoscopes of thoughts and passion
the day always came when she left,
she took her heart on the road
met strangers
left donations
sat quietly on park benches
watching the days go slowly by,
very late in the day
she often thought she was Alice
loved to say
"go feed your head,"
loved to walk alone
in the forest
bringing back small animal skulls
she found along the way,
left the bones in her yard
drank Absinthe and sugar cubes
with a straw
smoked Cubans and blew smoke rings
out into the fog

ive never known anyone to actually know the book 'Go Ask Alice'. it was so old and rather depressing.

It's not Eve's fault she ate the apple. It's God's fault for putting the tree there in the first place.

these words are from the book?
i haven't read it, and i think it isn't released in our language.. though, the first thought was about jefferson airplane's song, and the words 'go as alice, when she's ten feet tall' very fit for this photo. of course, you have to look at these buildings with a little bit imagination..

(and sorry for my poor english)

Yeah, it's depressing but I thought it was really enlightening. I helped me understand that world better.

its good to see others that dip into rare classic literature.

thanks

the last shot

in the wake of an eye
gone as fast as the blue passes to night
and the gates swing back
to their final resting place
shut tight
like the final final at closing time

more Grace Slick and the Wonderland girl
