Have you seen it? I know you'd love it! I posted about it on Facebook on 4/17 if you want to go to my timeline to see what the cover looks like. Here are three excerpts I found on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVU_6GLZ-5Q and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9hApou-86M and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3dkjTmh2gAAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01544716404789358675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-54993867368146339522016-04-22T23:15:15.657-04:002016-04-22T23:15:15.657-04:00I'm in love with your watercolor and pen drawi...I'm in love with your watercolor and pen drawing.

And "the life of the latch" somehow touches me most, that thought of "opening" oneself to another.

Thank you for Langston Hughes' opening quotes, as well as the animated recitation of his poem. The gift in both of those Hughes’ experiences for me is that I can think of him in terms other than “Harlem” (aka "Dream Deferred") which I studied with twenty-two classes of h.s. equivalency students. Most especially, thank you for sharing your beautiful watercolor...”the lift of the latch”…Thank you for empowering, post after post, so that we can lift the variety of latches that keep us imprisoned; you are the lift that enables us to envision and take hold of ourselves as the lifts. God bless you.
