Really enjoyed this, Phillip. There's a slow burn pace to your narrative and lots of internal considerations which gives depth to your piece.

Posted on Fri, 25 Jul 2014
Much of my life feels like this when I look back. This appealed to me at a personal level, beyond that, the environmental images are gritty, with their own emotional intensity and a certain sort of happy go luckiness that brings it to a chamring...
