"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

May I never forget who I am Who I have been, May I always remember every trial under fire, water and wind… The Earth will unmistakably claim my remains each time, unfettered by earthly constraints. And through time and space, transcend all boundaries and limitations. #Philosophos

How do I express that it’s too cold here without saying it 😂🥶😂🥶😂🥶😂

Thx, when you paint from your own imagination, it is inevitable to get stuck in making all work. It is easier to paint from a model or something real. I love surrealism. Thx JK!

Oil/Acrylics We light up the path 2018 #ART #Painting #Surrealism

To turn fear into contour, silence into direction… Each step taken in that light becomes evident it exists because we walk it. We light the path not to end the entropy, but to make the unfolding legible, as to pass through us without erasing our form. #CosmicSelf

The current in the Thames was too strong. Meanwhile, the undergrads began to wander, a logistical nightmare. I had no leeway left in the itinerary. I tried to express my concerns until I was purple, but had no idea how to explain the three men in the boat to say nothing of the dog. #inkmine

Brushed with #purple ink, The sky turns bruised, As daylight starts to bleed. 🌆 🫟 #Inkmine #DailyPrompt #PoetrySky #MicroPoem #ThreeLines #Sunset

You stand before warm lights in windows by the perfect stoop. You know a mimic when you see one. Steps will be teeth, or turn into a cement wave leading to a concrete current. In a window, a Napoleon, tall or short, will emerge soon to see you. You'll let 'em and wander on. #inkmine #vss365 #stoop

#InkMine #purple All shades of purple Maintain a strong pull Always catch my eye Across crowded room On a rack of clothes In a spring garden Featured pottery Uplifting and calm Warm and welcoming
