Signs of the times

Guest artist/photographer Paula Carino (of Paula Carino and the Markov Chains) shows us some thought-teasing visuals from the streets of NYC, plus a train trip to New Jersey -- plus a discussion of the meaning of signs in our lives, from Holzer to Baldessari. Keep clicking those ads, people! -- we reached 2000 readers/viewers last post! Our sincere thanks, and keep the blog rolling --blog.amynelsonhahn.info...

Reliquary
(for PC)

To see a heaven
in a sheet of glass
and impermeability
in the sounds of color --
this is the system
that bows and glows
its shards upon
the dismembered towers
of our disempowered shells,
so carefully slivered by
the wayside yet never quite alone.
And how do we expunge,
at the cost of a weariness,
the toll of a shy encounter
with the fated loss we hoped
by looking steadfastly past it
most to evade?
