incongruency

Image050.jpeg

i found myself on a cold but sunny day in boston with a zebra wearing this outfit last sunday. there's more to the picture which includes a hobby horse that i'm riding as well as my lucky jeans, which i adore and which fit me like no other jean ever has. the zebra was asleep next to the fence until i approached it. something about my outfit apparently registered as a threat and the zebra snorted and trotted off into the background. i like the mona lisa quality of this snapshot. there is only foreground and background, no middleground. it reflects the economic divide of the united states.

the occasion was the birthday of the twins, jaden and isaac. they are now one year old, walking and saying a few blurry words. their moms are doing a great job bringing them up.
