I’ve started keeping a small sketch journal. This is my first drawing, in pencil and two with digital alterations. It is based on a 1916 portrait of Marie Rapp by photographer Alfred Stieglitz:

The Best Poem I Could Think Of Today.

Bruce Springsteen is my hero.
They hijacked his song,
And used it to terrorize
The guilty and innocent alike
I hate that!
I believe
the U.S.A.
will have a black president.
And that feels right.
I think it would make
for a fine story
one day!
Don’t you?

Upwards, Onwards

Today I am feeling so much hope and happiness. I have a sense of the upward spiral beginning again. Thank you all for your concern. Got a nice haircut today and haven’t felt low in a couple of days. Played guitar and piano and took a walk with Ike and enjoyed every minute of it. Feeling flat at times, but it’s easier to laugh and feel alive. Please don’t worry, I’m OK. Love to all! xo Amy
