half
iranian - half kentucky.
philadelphia through my southern eyes..
growing up in the opposite direction of the
north -louisiana/
kentucky/and georgia..
learning to breathe and walk at a slower
pace...
breaking free from the south:young boy could
you refill
my sweet tea..
stepping into a city that carries soul and
creates characters..
philadelphia has changed the course of my
life..
introducing me to many temperatures..
a bitter nature i had never felt -
how different a state/country/place can
be/time and tomorrow..
the southern ways that i adopted as a child
- have given me the opportunity to
express and explore philadelphia at a
different pace -
standing still in the middle of constant
motion and endless footsteps..
interest in people and how we
move:smile:dance:worry or not/
with our thoughts/are
forever:photo:picture:picture:photo..
bringing back moments and memories..
walking philadelphia - staring at
confusion...
hungry man is an angry man/human nurture vs.
nature..
preacher pray:we've lost ourselves..
look not to judge:we shake our heads/breathe
to catch a breath..
realizing what a difference we can make
through a simple smile..
a day of back alleys and narrow
streets:walking/watching/listening:peoples
whispers and prayers..
washing the city night off my face.. |
