Searching for Words

2007.06.20











All my life I've looked at words as though I were seeing them for the first time.
Ernest Hemingway


Walk around a small town and collect words,
phrases, bits and pieces, single letters

I found these words in store fronts,
at CD Willie where you buy music and memorabilia
the window of a karate establishment
a health food store
a building that once housed a movie theatre
and a gift store selling items from India and Tibet
Words waiting for a collector

Sevendipity Greta idea. We pass them everyday. Reminds me of an incident in Communist Czechoslovakia. I had noticed monuments to peace everywhere, called mir, as well as huge exhortng hoardings. I asked my hosts what they all meant. They said what words, what monuments. Some of them were as tall as 60 feet!

jendayee When I was a teen ager, I was drawing and painting a lot, I was collecting all kinds of words, sentences, as long as they would give me ideas to draw.... letters... now I write but on songs... words are still important. I still have the book on wich I was fixing them with glue :)))
