[sunday] Butow Romey—The Fox And The Rope Bunny

I miss Butow, who passed away far far too soon last year. I loved his photography. He was such a great guy, a true madman. I always felt honored that he liked being a part of PIXELS so much, which is how I feel about all the artists, to be truthful. This is a movie we collaborated on in 2011. He shot the black and white footage; I shot the color. He wrote the music and did all the editing.

Catch you on the flip side, Butow.

Love Sonnet XI by Pablo Neruda

I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.
Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.
Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day
I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.

I hunger for your sleek laugh,
your hands the color of a savage harvest,
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.

I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,

and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
hunting for you, for your hot heart,
like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.

Happy Sunday.
