Recollections Transposed:
Observations written in my sketchbook: Two red chairs
A gray-haired man reads the newspaper alone in a crowded park
A woman looks out of the plane to see mountains for the first time
Trash cans overflow next to a souvenir stand
Three teens smoke by the river; one stands slightly away from the other two
Red chairs sit near a crowd of people. The crowd looks through the rungs of a fence at artists working
A phone number carved above a door lock
The carnival, the tent fully put-together, canvas removed, beams left, trash tumbles in the wind
The red chairs
