Free as a Bird
You may desire
to be free as a bird, not
understanding your proper
part within the whole,
meaning your ultimate destiny
is not in your hands, but
caught in a conflict
between the forces of
freedom and duty.

Penis Blossom — Grunge Art by kenne
“So beautiful of course compared
with what a man looks like
with his two bags full
and his other thing
hanging down out of him
or sticking up at you like a hatrack
no wonder they hide it with a cabbageleaf.”
— from Ulysses by James Joyce

A Sunflower For Joy 6 comments
A Sunflower for Joy –Grunge art by kenne
My best clothes
hang useless
next to old
faded t-shirts —
KLOL Rock Radio,
Chicago Blues Festival,
Sprint for Life,
all hiding memories
not forgotten, only
reserved for reasons
I cannot explain
nor feel I need to —
memories shared
like sunflowers
with Joy,
the secrets
routine prevents us
from discerning.

Phainopepla Grunge Art by kenne
“The Phainopepla is the Johnny Appleseed of the mistletoe plant. As it feeds, its droppings help to spread the mistletoe seed to other host trees. It is the northern most bird of a group of tropical birds known as Silky Flycatchers. The Phainopepla has shiny looking feathers which gives it its name, which means “Shining Robe”. These birds are closely related to the Waxwings.” Source: Birding Information

Nature’s beauty is unquestionable,
yet unsatisfied with the image
captured in the moment,
many photographers use tools
to create a different perspective —
calling it art.

Ghosts like to hide,
but they are easy to find
you just need to know
where to look —
in your minds eye.

Rio Sonora 1 comment
Petie, Michael and Alex of Ronstadt Generations (January 26, 2016, Alamos, Sonora) — Images by kenne
The was a time in 2014 when the entire Rio Sonora valley was effected by a chemical spill at the Grupo Mexico copper mine in Cananea, The spill caused the closing of 29 wells that provided 95 percent of the population near the Rio Sonora. In addition to cutting off municipal drinking water alone the Rio Sonora, the spill destroyed the dairy industry and farming, killed wildlife and impacted all other aspects of life along the 180 miles of prime riparian habitat.
This ecological disaster inspired Michael Ronstadt to write “Rio Sonora” telling the story of the Sonora river acid spill. On several occasions during our trip to Alamos, Sonora the Ronstadt Generations performed “Rio Sonora” and on one occasion I was able to video it.

Alamos Street Dog — Grunge Art by kenne
I watched her
dozing
in a sunny
morning way.
I took her
picture,
another one
as people
walked by.
I wondered
if she had
a name.
Probably not,
street dogs
don’t have
names —
just perro,
perro callejero.

Gallery Wall In Alamos, Sonora Leave a comment
Mexican Masks On Gallery Wall In Alamos (January 27, 2016) – Computer Art by kenne
Masks represent the Mexican people’s personality — not revealing themselves to another, even to their self.
“persistent, flowing through fallen shadows,
excavating tunnels, drilling silences,
insisting, running under my pillow,
brushing past my temples, covering my eyelids
with another, intangible skin made of air,
its wandering nations, its drowsy tribes
migrate through the provinces of my body,
it crosses, re-crosses under the bridges of my bones,
slips into my left ear, spills out from my right,
climbs the nape of my neck,
turns and turns in my skull,
wanders across the terrace of my forehead,
conjures visions, scatters them,
erases my thoughts one by one
with hands of unwetting water,
it evaporates them,
black surge, tide of pulse-beats,
murmur of water groping forward
repeating the same meaningless syllable,
I hear its sleepwalking delirium
losing itself in serpentine galleries of echoes,
it comes back, drifts off, comes back,
endlessly flings itself
off the edges of my cliffs,
and I don’t stop falling
and I fall”
― Octavio Paz
