Something in Commonby `BenHeine

Another Danboard, I used a 200 mm lens. It's the same drawing and same small piece of paper than PvsC 38 (below), but it's another photo. I placed it in a different environment.

I titled it "Something in Common" because in French "leaf" and "sheet" are both named "feuille"... I also wanted to suggest an opposition between technology (the tiny robot) and nature (the leaf). Nature is everywhere, the robot is a fictive representation. Magritte might have said: "this is not a robot", it's only an image of it...

Thanks for your feedbacks.

Ben's Imaginary Friend

A poem by Katie Gabrielle

Wake up
And you will see
My imaginary friend
sleeping next to me
Made of paper
And of ink
knows every
Single little thought
that I think
Out the door
A brand new day
Imaginary friend
come out and play
Winter, Spring, Summer Fall
Imaginary friend
Drives me up the wall
Little square head
Don't you know
Look both ways at the cross walk
Before you go
Yellow Red and Green
Imaginary friend
Crosses and makes a scene
Stop little imaginary friend
Take my hand
I can't let you go
Across freeway land
You'll get hurt
And then I'll cry
Imaginary friend
Please don't die
Because we've been together
Since I was small
When I glued you with paste
To the wall
And then the dog
dragged you Away
To the backyard
Because he wanted to play
He dug a hole
And threw you in
Scream and shout
"Let me out!"
Imaginary friend
I ran to see
What the fuss was
And I then I knew I'd be
Because an imaginary friend
May be made of paper
And of ink
And Smiles
Of yesterdays
In the land of
My Imaginary friend
