Train Music

Writing and Pictures
The poet and artist, friends for more than fifty years “Never lovers,” took an Amtrak train across America from New York to California, juxtaposing what we each saw and thought as expressed in his writing and my drawings and collages. Being Black in America and being Female and Jewish in America, yield an unusual and provocative view of both Physical and Psychic landscape we each knew in very different ways.
