Brokeback Diaries Prologue: Channeling Frida

On March 17th I fell 12 feet. Landed on my back. Broke it (I will tell you the story soon).

I am writing this flat on my back. Took this self-portrait flat on my back. Added a filter.

This was before I got a Spinal Brace (There’s a story to tell there too).

I will be confined for a while. Physically.

But my brain feels sharp and I don’t want to waste this clarity.

ML rigged up this iPad right above my head; I can reach up and type, record, photograph.

But fatigue will set in quickly.

I’ll have to work in brief bursts.

Catch the wave before it subsides.

I will experiment with the restriction.

Take my Frida Kahlo moment.
