is it my fault that some days feel like murder?; acrylic paints and inks on untempered masonite board, 6 x 8 inches. In the shop.
Do you ever wonder what happens to femme fatales? Like high school football stars, they have their glorious moment of mayhem and bending weaker-thans to their will, but then what? Do they just adjust their game, and prey on older fools? Or do they go the way of the shabby crowd, macerated by age and all the other heavy gravity forces that seep and wreathe their way into us over time, winding down our thoughts and dreams and movements until it's all some grinding miasma of just wanting some peace and quiet and a decent chair?

I hope they find a good chair, beside a cozy fire, and an interesting book.
