CROSSWISE

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
Helen Keller



Crosswise

But in art
as in life,
one cannot defer
that
iron
bars
are emblematic
of
uncertain happiness.
One’s hope
affix across
a female form
may
foment
freedom, a
tantamount
to life and
the art
of security.
