the development of truth

the development of truth

 

 

archaic innocence

is an old blemished photo

the faces, manipulated focus

 

we see what we see

and are what the technology assumes

the real skin a pattern of guilty hues

 

colors that show through the black and white images

reeling from a cold sun

and a lens of introspection.

This makes me think how powerful the media/press is in influencing our perceptions.

Stark imagery and amazingly apt metaphors.
Work that could hardly have been done better.
Exceptional, Jacob!

I wonder if there is a difference between the greater good and good. I think it should be only good. Just as innocence, no shades of it, once a soul crosses over, the game changes.

archaic innocence, guilty hues, cold suns....these words are to die for. Splendid pattern of your thoughts Jacob.

Everybody say cheese .....
some ONE once said
not knowing long after
how the faces would be read.

Time and times, held still and silent
left to one's own introspection..................WOW

Very neat
The idea of truth through this lense
I had mine changed and I might say this with a brave heart
I see nothing the way I once used to

Feels a little introspective, conveying a modicum of self-doubt as age takes its toll and guilt often surfaces as we examine the past and what might have been. You do know how to get our thoughts going Jacob and you have a way of stimulating images and feelings that leave a lasting impression.
