Man With Flowers

I went to see an exhibition some time ago. There was quite a nice mix of all sorts and I enjoyed it. One thing that really sticks is a picture of a man crying. He’s on his knees. His arms are around the legs of a woman on a kitchen floor. He’s dropped the bunch of flowers he was carrying. You can’t see much of her face. But she looks totally bored. As I looked at it two women approached and laughed in a light hearted way as they shared the odd word. They seemed to express something almost bitter sweet. Like revenge. But the laugh made it uncomfortable. Almost like a fantasy.
