"Shivering at the base of a tree
waiting for deer
hunting at twelve
many hours
alone
still
time to observe,
contemplate
a seed of quiet beauty planted
alone
again
under the darkcloth
mind tranquil
b o u y a n t
waiting
for images to appear
for feelings to emerge
dark, unknowing, quiet, contemplative,
images made slowly
the print, a mirror
reflecting
a symphony of symbols
the structure poetic,
the meaning infinite.Subjects transformed;
transcending original intent-
a more universal symbolic images?"Todd Parker
