somebody said it's unfair, the picture distorts the scale. maybe there's a better angle to view the scar of the obamachron, but this is the angle from the window where i live. i think of the angle of light, the poem of emily dickinson, and i look it up, a certain slant of light. interesting because slant implies judgement, and i guess my angle is slanted, but it's a gut response to the injustice of the theft and the devastation of the park. nothing could be more incisive, or slanted, than that.
None may teach it – Any –
'Tis the seal Despair –
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the Air –
When it comes, the Landscape listens –
Shadows – hold their breath –
When it goes, 'tis like the Distance
On the look of Death –
