Why am I the Joker? I delivered a boat from Hawaii to Gig Harbor, 1998.

I came ashore at a marina tavern and called a lady I knew, (see “Nickie” below).

She took me home, we took a shower, she fed me dinner and after, I went outside

and discovered this magnificent 40’ windfall Doug Fir. I knew I’d be there a while.

Dimensions unknown, lifesize

Lamentations 5:10, "Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine."

Inspired by a figure, crawling toward a UN aid station, in the background of a TIME journalist’s photo of the famine in Somalia in 1992.
