LatelyLately, I’m burning outside my window.  Why not today?  Double-sided people fully encircle me in opium psychosis excising the ether with samurai slices and white lotus flowers.  Drifting in darkness and swimming in shadow I cruise the gutters seeking my selfish desires.  Anything, to quench this insatiable thirst; anything to end this misery.

I’m the priest inside your head.  Fall to your knees from your traitor’s chair. Praise the end;  damn the beginning.

I’m just another ray from the sun flashing through space as quick as I please with angelic grace and beautiful blood-shot eyes.   The pages turn and something other t

and swim and dig in the sand and
look under rocks for crawfish to
scare the girls with

into a sisters underwear drawer)

we jumped off the top rail of the bridge

**Full view please**

I have accumulated a body of miles like an artist accumulates a body of work. It becomes difficult to recall all but the most memorable of experiences. I have to remind myself that the arrival of a destination is not the end of the journey, but the beginning of a new one.

Very heavily edited (to mask the squashed bugs on the windshield :D)

Aww man,I love the concept of this one John...the Big Rig,the open lonely road bending away into the distance and the best touch for me is the fish eye type reflection in the side mirror,awesome :w00t:

Shame about about the purple though,we have this Love/Hate relationship me and Mr.Purple,well actually it`s just pure hate,we never got on :fight: ...s`funny,Miss Lilac and me enjoy each others company no end though :aww:

Anyway,nuff nonsense...I`d like to see you snap this one again another day John,when you have a quality natural blue skyline to go with all the other aforementioned & ticked elements :D

Oh,I`d also crop that slanting black off at the top my friend ;p

:manhug: Thanks, Jonathon
I appreciate your candor. Not everybody likes purple. I was trying for a surreal, posterized feel. that's the way I was feeling yesterday. I should have stopped in Murdo and cleaned my windshield inside and out so the shots would be clearer, but I didn't, and because I was going south the sun was reflecting on the windshield like a demon

Ahhh, well, maybe next time. :)
