still life
Wednesday, April 11, 2007



Thinking about objects and what they symbolise. The contents of a handbag or the stomach of a dead man. Last meal last handkerchief last book read last dress worn. Cut up the clothes of your unfaithful lover. Shoot his dog (the resemblance is too close). Wear the face cream of your husband's girlfriend which you stole from his bathroom. It's as good as eating her liver (especially if you are a vegetarian). Keep the shoes your children wore as infants. Their shape fills you with love. Your mother's poison bracelet. Your father's pewter tankard. Auntie Dolly's dressing gown. Still life.
