A tribute to all those emigrants who leave their homeland in search of something better to offer their families back home. Who do several menial jobs to sustain themselves in miserable conditions and to sustain their families back home in even worse ones. Many of them sell these roses around the streets at night.

Self-portrait Heroin, Velvet Underground - “I don’t know just where I’m going / But I’m gonna try for the kingdom, if I can / ‘Cause it makes me feel like I’m a man / When I put a spike into my vein / And I’ll tell ya, things aren’t quite the same / When I’m rushing on my run / And I feel just like Jesus’ son / And I guess that I just don’t know / And I guess that I just don’t know I have made the big decision / I’m gonna try to nullify my life / ‘Cause when the blood begins to flow / When it shoots up the dropper’s neck / When I’m closing in on death / And you can’t help me, not you guys / And all you sweet girls with all your sweet talk / You can all go take a walk / And I guess that I just don’t know / And I guess that I just don’t know I wish that I was born a thousand years ago / I wish that I’d sail the darkened seas / On a great big clipper ship / Going from this land here to that / In a sailor’s suit and cap / Away from the big city / Where a man can not be free / Of all of the evils of this town / And of himself, and those around / Oh, and I guess that I just don’t know / Oh, and I guess that I just don’t know Heroin, be the death of me / Heroin, it’s my wife and it’s my life / Because a mainer to my vein / Leads to a center in my head / And then I’m better off than dead / Because when the smack begins to flow / I really don’t care anymore / About all the tensions in this town / And all the politicians makin’ busy sounds / And everybody puttin’ everybody else down / And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds ‘Cause when the smack begins to flow / Then I really don’t care anymore / Ah, when the heroin is in my blood / And that blood is in my head / Then thank God that I’m as good as dead / Then thank your God that I’m not aware / And thank God that I just don’t care / And I guess I just don’t know / And I guess I just don’t know”

Self-portrait after unfortunate encounter with the doorway on Ambien at 2 am… Kick in the Eye, Bauhaus “And he spoke of pastures green / I was never told why / Each journey lasts an age / And my throat feels dry / It must be the lesson / Hidden deep inside / It must be the lesson / So roll the tide So I began the crossing / My throat burned dry / Searching for Satori / The kick in the eye”

A collaboration with CLiPiCs (Kriss). Thanks Kriss for all the time and effort you put into the post processing work of this photo to make my vision come to life, your endurance and skill deserves a standing ovation / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- / Last week: I stared at the obviously fractured forearm, and the probable fractured wrist. I had already noticed the purpling bruise on her upper arm. I smiled and talked to her calmly as I felt her hand to check for other injuries. / “How’d it happen?” I asked. / “I fell out of bed”, she said. / I raised my eyebrows, “really“? / “Yes, he bought silk sheets and I slid right off”, she said with a forced smile. / I explained that she needed x-rays of her arm, wrist, and hand. I checked her over and didn’t see any other bruises or suspicious areas. / I looked her in her eyes and quietly asked, “did someone do this to you?” / She answered “no”, but couldn’t hold my gaze. / And she kept saying no. / So I handed her the number to the local Women’s Shelter and encouraged her to use it if needed. There wasn’t much I could do if she, as an adult, was not ready to admit to it. The next day I saw the other side of a similar situation. I was removing the staples from the laceration on his wrist. / “Suicide attempt?” I asked. / The tears welled up in his eyes and he nodded his head. “I broke my number one rule, I hit a woman, my wife in fact”. / I felt my eyebrows rise again as I looked at him. / “I hurt her bad”, he said. Then he told me the story that they both were drinking and an argument started that seemed to go on forever. “She wouldn’t stop“, he said. He kind of remembered picking up a beer bottle and hitting her with it. He sort of remembered slitting his wrist. He does remember the police wrestling him to the ground. / He had spent the last week in a psychiatric center. He was remorseful and kept promising it would never happen again. I’m not sure if he was trying to convince me or himself. / I wished him luck. / Later, I found out his wife was being seen across the hall by one of the doctors, she had a fractured arm, black eyes, and other injuries. There are Women’s Shelters scattered all over the United States. They keep their locations secret for the safety of the women and children that seek refuge there. Often they help the women start over by assisting them in obtaining an apartment, and providing counseling for the both the women and the children. In fact, the next time you are thinking about donating clothes or furniture or household items or money to a charity- check with your local womens shelter- they are often desperate for donations. The local police should be able to provide a contact telephone number. BTW- men can be the victim, instead of the abuser. Take note of these toll free 1-800 numbers in the United States (if anyone wants to post free numbers in their own countries, please do) 1-800- 552-7096 Abuse/Neglect Hotline / 1-800-799-7233 Domestic Violence Hotline / 1-800-838-8238 Family Violence Hotline / 1-800-843-5678 Missing/Neglected Children / 1-800-786-2929 National Runaway Switchboard / 1-800-656-4673 Rape/Sexual Assault Hotline / 1-800-SUICIDE Suicide Crisis Hotline / 1-800-999-9999 Youth Crisis Helpline Camera: Canon 20D / Photo taken: July 11, 2009 / Photo posted: November 22, 2009

This is another self portrait, this time inspired by the song ‘Changes’ by David Bowie (lyrics below). I’ve used: - a picture of myself / - lots of filters / - several textures, mostly my own but also a couple by Sirius SDZ / - embellishments (flourishes) from my embellishment kit (see) Here are the lyrics – I thought they just perfectly matched what I’d tried to do with this image: I still don’t know what I was waiting for / And my time was running wild / A million dead-end streets / Every time I thought I’d got it made / It seemed the taste / was not so sweet / So I turned myself to face me / But I’ve never caught a glimpse / Of how the others must see the faker / I’m much too fast to take that test Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Don’t want to be a richer man / Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Just gonna have to be a different man / Time may change me / But I can’t trace time I watch the ripples change their size / But never leave the stream / Of warm impermanence and / So the days float through my eyes / But still the days seem the same / And these children that you spit on / As they try to change their worlds / Are immune to your consultations / They’re quite aware / of what they’re going through Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Don’t tell them to grow up and out of it / Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Where’s your shame / You’ve left us up to our necks in it / Time may change me / But you can’t trace time Strange fascination, fascinating me / Changes are taking the pace / I’m going through Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Oh, look out you rock ‘n rollers / Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes / (Turn and face the stranger) / Ch-ch-Changes / Pretty soon you’re gonna get / a little older / Time may change me / But I can’t trace time / I said that time may change me / But I can’t trace time

Inspired by Pink’s song So What (lyrics below). I wanted it to look battered and bruised but defiant. :-) I used my own photo, patterns and embelllishments and several of Sirius-SDZ’s textures. So What I guess I just lost my husband / I don’t know where he went / So I’m gonna drink my money / I’m not gonna pay his rent (nope) / I’ve got a brand new attitude, / And I’m gonna wear it tonight / I’m gonna get in trouble / I wanna start a fight Na na na na na / I wanna start a fight / Na na na na na / I wanna start a fight! [Chorus] / So, / So what I’m still a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t need you / And guess what / I’m havin more fun / And now that were done / I’m gonna show you tonight / I’m alright / I’m just fine / And you’re a tool so / So what / I am a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t want you tonight Unh Check my flow Uohhh The waiter just took my table / And gave it to Jessica Simps / (Shit! ) / I guess I’ll go sit with drum boy / At least he’ll know how to hit / (Oops) / What if this song’s on the radio, / Then somebody’s gonna die! haha / I’m going to get in trouble, / My ex will start a fight Na na na na / He’s gonna to start a fight / Na na na na / We’re all gonna get in a fight! [Chorus] / So, / So what I’m still a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t need you / And guess what / I’m havin more fun / And now that were done / I’m gonna show you tonight / I’m alright / I’m just fine / And you’re a tool so / So what / I am a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t want you tonight You weren’t there / You never were / You want it all but that’s not fair / I gave you life / I gave my all / You weren’t there, you let me fall [Chorus] / So, so what I’m still a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t need you / And guess what / I’m havin more fun / And now that were done / I’m gonna show you tonight / I’m alright / I’m just fine / And you’re a tool so / So what / I am a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t want you tonight No no / No no, I don’t want you tonight / You weren’t there / I’m gonna show you tonight / I’m alright / I’m just fine / And you’re a tool so / So what / I am a rock star / I got my rock moves / And I don’t want you tonight (Wooohooooooo! ) Ba da da da pffftt
