Dorothy
beautiful morning
blank canvas
like those that Quatrocentro painters created
in magical landscapes
in captivity in her own homeland
when the plane Carole Lombard was on crashed
"I dreamed of spending the quiet years of the rest of my life
here with you,
and now I feel as if we are fighting World War III"
the pattern of relentless life interference
on the deck of the Lexington in the Battle for Leyte Gulf
Audie Murphy -
the most decorated soldier in World War II,
he was killed in a plane crash on Memorial Day Weekend.
the darkly symbolic takeover by industrialists of the Bohemian Club,
the story of men with axes destroying Diego Rivera's mural
and then the dream shifted
When I woke up, the sun was shining.
I went to my studio and began to paint.

Chiricahua Apache sculptor Allan Houser,
the larger than life-size singer in Morning Prayer
a startling portrayal of relentless love
A few days after she attended a demonstration
against CIA interference in Guatemala, Frida Kahlo was dead
The artist was a young man when he created it.
But the drawing is remarkable for its expression of core human valuesvou
a life where his own work
was as equally celebrated
like many other artists, particularly women,
Alice Austen's work is under house arrest
at the intersection of Peachtree and 13th in Atlanta,
Margaret Mitchell was run down
The principle actors in Gone With the Wind
stalked by tragedy
and in her own life
Butterfly McQueen found it difficult to get work as an actress. She died
of burns after a fire at her home
A few year later, Arnie Zane was dead. Lost to AIDS
when they were finally freed,
Allan Houser was the first child born out of captivity
