We Both Know

 



We Both Know (douglas brent smith)


youā€™ve been hurt iā€™ve been hurt, too   

everyoneā€™s hurt you know itā€™s true   

we build ever taller walls    

and hope someday that they might fall    

   

you tell your truth, i start the chase   

you throw another beer in my face   

i think there must be something more to this   

   

we try and miss and try again   

we donā€™t need labels but weā€™re more than friends   

you donā€™t need to tell anyone and   

i donā€™t need to tell anyone but   

i think you know what i think you already know   

   

youā€™ve been free and iā€™ve been free   

letā€™s unlock this mystery   

you be you and iā€™ll be me   

this is us we both agree   

and i think we know what we both know

Attention Paid to the Spiritual Side

 Attention Paid to the Spiritual Side -- collage by douglas brent smith I think I've used some of these images in other collages.  That happens, sometimes. The context changes the meaning and justifies the redundancy. Or, at least I think it does. I gave some thought to coloring this collage and decided against it. Maybe later, with time on my hands, I'll decide to color it. Probably not though because that process takes many hours and there is so much new work to do. This piece is from 1994. I was a completely differently person then and so were you (presuming that you were even alive then!) We're changing every day.  What color do you think that floor is? -- dbs -- 

Behind the Secret Door

 Behind the Secret Door (#2) Behind the Secret Door (#1) Notes: I think (hope) that #2 (the one above) is an improvement over #1 (which is the exact same picture except that in #2 I added some lines, drew over a few more, and shaded one area. 

You Can Be Positive

instant breakfast dreams

scrambled dreams    scattered schemes    ideas flashed on the mezzanine    the balcony's crowded with narrow scenes    colorful dreaming liquid sleep        poached eggs dreams    wet and fried    homage to the dreams that died    rules that flutter    into melted butter    dreams design    their own red line    fried dreams my dreams    your dreams ours    evening slips and then devours    sheets around us    lights dimmed black    shadowed visions    on our backs    your dream is my dream is our dream complete.
