that ^ is what my tumblr archive looks like at present

I had amassed too many items in my queue and drafts, it was becoming rather unwieldy. I wanted to me délester de ses contenus - to relieve myself of its contents. And so, I decided that I would make it a challenge, to blog them according to colour, forcing my mind to see how it would be inspired as a certain image came up. And it has. I’ve almost cleared the nooks and crannies, I’m feeling lighter already, but this little tumblr anthropophage has more to spit out yet.

It was also a feeling of needing to rebel against the appropriation of once-coloured photos, reblogged as somehow artsier black and whites. Seriously. It’s been done. Let’s move on. Leave colour alone. Stop stripping my pictures. So here’s a bit of colour to brighten up the place… enjoy.

I’ve been broke as long as I remember, Get a little money and I gotta run and spend ‘er When I try to save it, pretty woman come and take it Sayin’ maybe things’ll get a little better, in the morning Maybe things’ll get a little better.
Work your fingers to the bone - what do you get? Bony Fingers, bony fingers…
- Hoyt Axton, Bony fingers

It’s an odd juxtaposition, a Hoyt Axton song and this particular image, but it’s exactly what I thought of.
