A REPRESENTATIONAL SELF

























A MAD DESIRE FOR A JUST WORD

Click on this image. Watch
the cat disappear— all but his smile!











Cat up a tree

gone into canopy
smiling angel
creative emotion  
insighting power
under the pen—me
ow me-oozing, smiles
throwing words into
their true order but

never trust a smiling cat[i]
grin hanging in a tree
