self-pity manifesto

want to be old and gay, bursting into tears in the lap of any of many young friends, crackheads, immuno compromised, broken cheerful whores, who will softly stroke my balding head and whisper sweet, trivial words of compassion to me when i am sad. get a crush on a sixteen y.o. fickle dancing leech, my friends will forgive this shameful obsession and his monstrous abuse of me, because they know my heart and how good it is, and there's no such thing these people won't forgive, versed in the ways of sorrow as they are. overdoses, breakdowns, cut wrists will replace this view of poplars and preening canaries.

Keith: Nice Try Focus is on Wrong End of horse obviously!! The square
is hard to compose in, dont fell too bad. Sometimes we Fotographers
have to take what we get. Bob



Irving Penn

Hi Irv, I don't know what you were thinking here dude! You got a pretty
model (altho kind of old), but you have caught her with her eyes cloes
in a not very good pose. Biggest problem is YOU NEED CROP to a
vertical!!!!! Backdrop is too small and there is not enough of a sweep
so you can see the crease. If you send me a file I can fix it in
Photoshop and I can give you my suggested crop. If you don't care
aboout your PROFESSIONALISM you are never going to get work as a pro
believe me!!! Hope I am not being too harsh. Oh well best regards
anyway, M.H.
