Ballad of a Thin Man.
You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, "Who is that man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just what you will say
When you get home
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Well, what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God
Am I here all alone?"
But something is happening
And you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Thank you Marcus. I'll keep the story behind it a secret, but I can tell you there's nothing staged or set up about this picture - it's what was there.

Love the balance, left to right. Love the balance, white and black. But what really makes this for me is cutting off the head of the puppeteer. Felliniesque. Awesome.
