movementsofthesoul: In the 1950s, Swiss photographer Robert Frank snapped a photo of a Miami Beach elevator girl gazing upward, lost in thought, which was included in his 1958 photographic road-trip journal “The Americans.” In the introduction of On the Road, Jack Kerouac wondered about her, “That little ole lonely elevator girl looking up sighing in an elevator full of blurred demons, what’s her name & address?” Kerouac never found out, because Sharon Collins only recognized herself as the girl in the photo twelve years ago, when Robert Frank’s “The Americans” was being exhibited in San Francisco. She stated, “I stood in front of this particular photograph for probably a full five minutes, not knowing why I was staring at it. And then it really dawned on me that the girl in the picture was me.”

“Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of ‘the rat race’ is not yet final.” Hunter S Thompson

alecksander: I’m missing you for so long. You’re a question mark and a scar, and you twist me up like a tourniquet ’till I don’t know who we are. I know chasing after you won’t change a thing, and I hope you find it through this endless wandering. Change everything I know. He won’t let me come, and he won’t let me go. So if it’s a water landing, then it’s a water landing.
