This blog is in reverence to one of my featured writers.
Amber Gold.
Beautiful daughter of a military family.
Oldest, and best big sister to a Hollister brother.
All American.
I took Amber’s senior pictures a few years back.
#Timberline #Graduate
Currently studying at PLU.
She took a break this winter to fly to London,
because she met a boy she thought was cute,
and they never got to kiss.
This Christmas she found her mistletoe in England,
pledged her heart to a radiant soul,
as her own soul fled to torment.
“I really miss home…”
AMERICA
Americans LOVE PEOPLE… please stop hurting us.
I am afraid Amber. I am afraid of people hurting other people and that fear is not segregated. It is carnal, it is raw, it is human.
People are fearful of what they do not know, and savage when they know hurt that can not be tamed. I was worried about you going so far away from home because you are young, beautiful, rape..able…
I thought your parents were nuts for letting you go, but what the heck could they do. You are legal now. So was Amanda Knox, and that young woman is doomed. She is so analytically in rhetorical defense that she has become the cold of a killer regardless of guilt. They won’t let her know freedom that is green and ripe for any color. They want her to be the grey of all demise, insolent, young, pretty, American. She probably has everything…
Maybe she did it? I don’t know what to believe, but I know that I can be dark just as I can be light. That man in Scotland. That man is everywhere, Amber. He’s my dad for crying out loud. Holy sh*t balls, my father seethes venom toward other people, so much he will not leave his house. He has his dog and he wants to be left alone.
I love him anyway. Sometime I love him most. I should also mention that he has asked me to never write about him. I told him to f*ck off. If I have to listen to it, he should be able to read it read back to him.
Your blog was brutal. Thank you for taking your free time to write for me. I am ready to take another set of pictures and I want to do them in Seattle.
