The Young Artist

O grave, where is thy victory?
O death, where is thy sting?
O, the blasphemy of that promise!
Non serviam ad infinitum...

Fall River

I watched the sun set over Fall River
the air hurt and my back smelled bad

I still didn't understand love,
but I knew I had to go to the bathroom.

Beast

I might as well be

More recently, when I was helping Daniel set up for his junior review at MassArt, I watched a video he made where he walked around at Target, filling up carts above his head, and then just leaving them.
