An unclothed woman with black paint smeared on her body sits in a kitchen window with light streaming in behind her. The title of the photo is from a line in Carl Sandburg's poem "Chicago": "They tell me you are wicked and I believe them, for I have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys."
They Tell Me You Are Wicked and I Believe Them for I Have Seen Your Painted Women

I ASKED the professors who teach the meaning of life to tell me what is happiness. And I went to famous executives who boss the work of thousands of men. They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though I was trying to fool with them And then one Sunday afternoon I wandered out along the Desplaines river And I saw a crowd of Hungarians under the trees with their women and children and a keg of beer and an accordion.

The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.

"Heavy heavy is love to carry
and light as one rose petal,
light as a bubble, a blossom,
a remembering bar of music
or a finger or a wisp of hair
never forgotten."
Carl Sandburg, from "Solo For Saturday Night Guitar"

Travelers gaze at lush fields: "What place is this?"
Grass replies: Your bloodiest battlegrounds. I worked.
Sandburg's "Grass"—the poem that exposes war's amnesia:

“It is necessary now and then for a man to go away by himself and experience loneliness; to sit on a rock in the forest and to ask to himself, ‘Who am I, and where have I been, and where am I going?’” —Carl Sandburg At the bottom left is the Humanism Church logo: a stylized human figure above an open book. At the bottom right is the text “humanism.church”. The background shows a serene garden scene with moss-covered rocks, green foliage, still water, and part of a stone lantern.
Only in solitude we can face ourselves without distraction and listen for the truths that everyday noise conceals. #CarlSandburg #Philosophy #Humanism #HumanismChurch

"Gotta Travel On" is an American #folksong. The earliest known version was printed in #CarlSandburg's #TheAmericanSongbag in 1927 under the title "Yonder Comes the High Sheriff" and several variations were recorded in the 1920s, but the best known version is credited to #PaulClayton, #TheWeavers.

Oh I forgot I used a goofy heashot. But well, that's me. I hope Carl Sandburg doesn't turn over in his grave. As an homage, he's a character in the play!! #booksky #carlsandburg #newmusical #dramaticpublishingcompany

Singing ghost songs
And love to the harvest moon; I am a jack-o’-lantern
With terrible teeth
And the children know
I am fooling.
