3 Sixty 5 Photography: 053 "The Day Shall Declare It.“ Downtown LA.

"Once in a while I may go out to the movies. I will sit in the back row with all that darkness all around me and figures sitting motionless on each side not conscious of me. Imaginary people. People in stories. I will read long books and the journals of dead writers. I will feel closer to them than I ever felt to anyone I knew before I withdrew from the world. It will be sweet and cool this friendship of mine with dead poets for I won’t have to touch them or answer their questions. They will talk to me and not expect me to answer. And I will grow sleepy listening to their voices explaining the mysteries to me. I will fall asleep with books still in my fingers and it will rain. A season of rain, rain, rain.”
