I was attracted by something indescribable.

A vapid euphoria...uncouthcomfort...
involuntary sexuality...
a slovenly sense of security

I felt I had gained a glimpse of
the women’s natural faces.

When they breathe a sigh of joy…when returning to one’s normal posture...

Although I empathize with these emotions,
I am also startled by their natural selves.

Perhaps a person’s natural face can at times soothe and at other times disconcert.

These days, others can steal looks at
our private emails.

Our global connections anytime and
anywhere to anyone
turn private lives into one mass of content.
Our secrets are stolen,
like darkness has disappeared from cities.
It’s a world that forbids us from slacking off
from time to time or telling a little fib.

Where is human happiness now?
I wanted to see it in “slovenly peace of mind.”

The finished photos were more biting
than I’d imagined.
Perhaps human expressions are more stimulating in private than in public.
