The Escape

Scott Walker December 18, 2017

I took this photo in 2014 and it remains one of my favorites. 

The look in his eyes is of a faraway place that I cannot relate. His appearance is scattered as are his thoughts. 

He stood outside of a downtown Nashville skyscraper at midnight and he told me that we were standing in a desert. 

His sandy blonde hair floated in the breeze as he went on to tell me about his spaceship and then pointed to the window of a nearby business. Inside was a computer that had a screen saver of a commercial jet on it. He said that was his spaceship.

“This is a man in need. His fear is naked and obvious, but he's lost. . . Somewhere in his darkness. His eyes wide and bleak and tortured.” ― E.L. James
