fade into culture
campbell’s soup cans tagged on subway cars descend into giant holes in the earth. it gets dark. we pick up speed. ✨️ the sound of steel on steel is amplified by the concrete coated walls. an artist absorbs every sense of it. a product comes into being. to be sold. sold. sold. my hair turns white like warhol. 🙃 when we come into the light i have my mysteries inside my heart. you will have to kill me.

we went on a walk. the clouds were trying to hem in the sky. a man played tug of war with a pitbull. we talked about society and how people find one another through attributes they lack. ten baby geese waddling to the pond. connections can help you get ahead but what’s ahead? is it money? visibility? business? fame? all of that and an insatiable sense of loneliness. #katyamills
tongue.
through the years they lost everything they ever had. the relationship with language endured this troublesome time. to a point of speaking somewhat in tongues

sonny leon and the strike
we jumped up and down hollering
they came from 15 horses behind and
charged ahead to win
the odds were the worst but we
took them. by the tears in your eyes
i knew: you carried long odds and i
carried them too
