Exactly, More or Less
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.
Downstream Corporation
Downstream Corporation - collage by douglas brent smith, 30 August 1991.
The board of directors is not in the mood for slacking. The stream must keep flowing and the product must roll. There is money to be made, but wait! That pause for fun has already begun.
For most of my life, collages all came together in one day. They could take hours, but I would seldom stop working on one until it was done. Usually the radio would be playing endlessly in the background -- WMMR when I lived in NJ or PA, WXRT when I lived in Chicago. For this collage, it was WXRT all the way.

Levitating a Small Guitar
Levitating a Small Guitar - sketch by douglas brent smith (probably 1991).
"Do you think that he could levitate a large guitar, that is to say, a normal sized guitar as well?"
"No doubt. It might take some practice, though."
"Does it come naturally?"
"It comes with practice."
"That is more like a ukulele than a guitar."
"Nope. It has six strings. Guitar."
"Small"
"But he could also levitate a large guitar. Maybe one wasn't available."
"Well, you've got to start someplace."
"Yes."

Badminton
It is only a doodle. A quick sketch that started out as a space ship but somehow ended up looking like a badminton birdie. Still, I like it, so here it is.
