Exactly, More or Less - collage by douglas brent smith, 30 November 1991


she looked at me

as if i knew what i was doing

but she knew that i didn't

and was not having 

any of it

making it all sideways

slipped and slipping

so i did my best

to get her attention

only achieving

disapproval.

Wild Towers

  Wild Towers -- collage by Douglas Brent Smith Notes: In the lower right corner is one of my favorite photos -- my brother Dave and me at Grandmom and Grandpop Rogers' house. If you look closely you can see Grandpop Rogers sitting in his chair. He was probably reading the newspaper, the Bridgeton Evening News. It was a great newspaper in those days and Grandpop read it front to back every night. There are more clear versions of this picture, probably even in other collages because I love it so much. Those were wonderful days and I miss my little brother so much.
