Artist's Comments

I've not felt so instantly inspired by a stock photo in a long LONG time - thanks to *Angelbetty for giving me an unintentional creative shove in the right direction ;)

Created while listening to APC's Three Libras (see lyrics below).
Hence the title. :)

threw you the obvious and you flew
with it on your back, a name in your recollection,
thrown down among a million same.
difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed
and passed over
when i've looked right through
to see you naked and oblivious
and
you don't see me.but i threw you the obvious
just to see if there's more behind the eyes
of a fallen angel,
the eyes of a tragedy.
here i am expecting just a little bit
too much from the wounded.
but i see through it all
and see you.
so i threw you the obvious
to see what occurs behind the eyes of a fallen angel,
eyes of a tragedy.
oh well. apparently nothing.
you don't see me.
you don't see me at all.

very cool idea with the framing method. very creepy feel to it and great work on the dark eye- very good texture to it
