When I began this collage, I had no idea that this is where it would lead me.

At this point I would say it's not on fire anymore...it's burnt to the ground.

Do you think so?  Strange...I feel like it could get a whole lot worse before it gets better.

Does that make you the optimist, then?

Trippy4U In reply to hummbuzz [2020-02-05 06:36:52 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, point well taken. It's going to get worse for sure but I'm still on the other side of the optimistic fence because I don't think it'll ever get better again.

Even worse are those who do notice, and refuse to see.

May I write a musical response to this piece? Kind of like an ekphrastic, but with music.

thank you Yvette:
Our House Is On FireOur house is on fire - And the baby’s on the roof –
No one would believe me - But baby, I got proof
The stars keep shinin’ – Don’t mean no thing to me
The sky has folded up and said he’s gonna leave,    
Our house is on fire - And the baby’s on the roof –
No one would believe me - But baby, I got proof
The four winds keep howlin’, tellin’ us the tale
Everyone’s deep pockets, everyone’s for sale
Our house is on fire - And the baby’s on the roof –
No one would believe me - But baby, I got proof
Takin’ what we need, and then a whole lot more
Mother earth’s done waitin’, She’ll be settlin’ that score

Super work, Yvette. And are the the little faces blowing the flames out or fanning the flames - nice ambiguity.

I guess the answer to that question is up to each one of us.

Thank you, Richard.

Of the various art forms that I have attempted, collage (to me) is the most mysterious.

I never know, when I start one, where it will take me in the end. 

It taps into the intuitive unknown, and that is a fascinating miracle.
