Artist’s Notes:

"You know it never has been easy

Whether you do or you do not resign

Whether you travel the breadth of extremities

Or stick to some straighter line

Now here's a man and a woman sitting on a rock

They're either going to thaw out or freeze

Listen

Strains of Benny Goodman

Coming through the snow and the pinewood trees

I'm porous with travel fever

But you know I'm so glad to be on my own

Still somehow the slightest touch of a stranger

Can set up trembling in my bones

I know no one's going to show me everything

We all come and go unknown

Each so deep and superficial

Between the forceps and the stone"

-Joni Mitchell, HEJIRA
