humane
malevolent
sad
tired
wary
faces
at the airport
last night
but
which one
of them,
my love,
was
you?

Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 10/17/05 at 06:38 PM Peter, YES!, very, very cool. You've captured the moment perfectly. Thin slicing to just the faces. Boffo! |
Posted by Michelle Angelini on 08/19/06 at 09:01 PM Peter, the longing here is so evident. Aren't we all looking for the faces of our "love," whether at the airport or on any city street? I love this and can say I've felt the same way too many times.
