Ruins on Mill Street

PHOTOGRAPHER'S JOURNAL: In the summer of 2013, the old dye works, abandoned for a decade, magnet for people left homeless and unemployed erupted in a ball of flame that burned for days.

Hand Made

Along the web where thumb folds into finger 

brick cadences resound as loaded piers

piling and arching against the weight of time

The meter of the module is a loom

to weave a wall of petit point perfection. 

A cold caress, to stroke it with your mind.

What ancient mason's hand? What royal tomb?
