Sleep
Not tired
Just an escape
A routine pursuit
To places hidden
Behind armor
A bare façade
Contrived
Vulnerability
Portrayed
Another sketch of “D” from

Yes...thought so...her left side is finished and she has turned right over now, to tan her right side...and now has fallen asleep...leaving her rather vulnerable...;)
ReplyDeleteA plausible interpretation, I suppose. I viewed her sleeping, escaping to a place the crowd can’t reach..
DeleteThat's mostly the way I sleep now, never have before, aging I guess everything hurts, but she doesn't look in pain, I'm glad
ReplyDelete'an Escape routine pursuit' hits the mark for me...sometimes i think you read minds, you seem to read mine so often....
I start out each night the same way.
DeleteSleep has become a reliable escape lately from the crowd and their expectations. I pretend to read minds often☺
Thank you
Indeed, escape, to get back to real me, yes? Provoking idea...
ReplyDeleteTo escape, I sleep so much more now than when I was young.
