for those about to rock

a separate peace

on a dismal, stormy monday such as today, it feels good to look back at some of the pictures i took of venice beach and to be able to recall the serenity i enjoyed during my two hours spent on a secluded spot i staked out by the shore; a warm quiet suffusing the afternoon; a moment in the kind of repose those corona tv commercials capture by making the static wash of waves lapping the shore and the occasional cawing of seagulls seem like non-noise, the wet clink of beer bottles emerging from a bucket full of ice as a loud reality check that actually serves the dream in the end.
