Evolution . . .

Three photos from the previously mentioned trip to Haiti in 1997.

In a small book I put together shortly after the trip, this photo was given the caption :

Holding Pattern
.

In Jacmel, on the southern coast

A boat was washed up into a street in a storm

No doubt in one of the hurricanes

That sometimes lash those shores

There was no reason to move it

So it stayed

People passing by

Pay it little notice . . .

"Old man look at my life, I'm alot like you were . . .

I'm all alone at last . . ." (Neil Young)

From a child, to a woman, to an old man

The stages of life, and all the world's a stage

Evolution in a series of photos

There are those who would deny

Who would deny evolution

Preferring to believe

In miracles

But I know

The clock is ticking . . .
