Monday Morning – Site of Sore “Eyes?”
Good taste forbids me to title this post “Booby-trapped” or any variation thereof.
(Photo is of Louise Bourgeois’ “Eyes” sculpture in Wagner Park, NYC, for some reason cordoned off today. A long weekend perhaps, and a lot of damp below.)

late last night i was thinking to myself- the thoughts may appear in the poem I’m working on 🙂 – how i much prefer sculpture to statues. this is a wonderful example, proving sculpture has much more to offer in the way of interpretation. a statue of a dog or bunny or troll just standing still- nothing there but a bare likeness. here, well-bare likeness takes on a much more profound meaning…

You know – that is an interesting distinction – sculpture and statues – I’ve not thought of it much, but makes sense. k.

Well, in my experience, a lot of guys seem to think looking you in the eyes involves exactly this set of eyeballs–possibly the sculptor’s point, for all I know. Though of course, there are many interpretations that get the brain working in this. Thanks for …opening my eyes this morning, k.

They look like bombs more than eyes. Just saying.

They are quite odd, I agree. k.

I could have so used this for my motor-boating post.

A bit hard and cold, I fear!

So funny–but I am sure that was what the sculptor was thinking about!

Everyone down there seems to think so. I am very busy today and haven’t been able to deal with OLN yet. k.
