SELECTED QUOTES CONSTITUTING AN ARTIST'S STATEMENT, FOR NOW, RELATING TO MY PIECE "MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN COWBOYS".
My heroes have always been cowboys,
Sharon Vaughan, "My heroes have always been cowboys"
(sung by Willie Nelson)
I'm burning up the road
Leonard Cohen, "I Can't Forget"
I came to explore the wreck.
from Adrienne Rich, "Diving Into the Wreck"
And they still are it seems,
Sadly in search of,
Just one step in back of
Themselves and their slow moving dreams.
I'm heading down to Phoenix
I've got this old address
of someone that I knew.
It was high and fine and free,
Ah you should have seen us.
And I can't forget,
I can't forget,
I can't forget
But I don't remember who.
The words are purposes.
The words are maps.
I cam to see the damage that was done
and the treasures that prevail.
