no one puts baby in the corner

when i first look at this photo.. i see the obvious.... the big bold black boxes and the opposing linear black figure......

but when i think about it...sit with it.. and look ..... and feel it... there are so many more layers... isolation...... loneliness.... being placed in the corner.... or the feeling of being put in the corner... or just plain feeling cornered..... not in a physical threatened sense..... but mb just being unseen, unheard....... pushed out of vision...... or frozen........unable to move in one direction or the other.... similar, but clearly different choices... Black box up on one side.. but on the bottom on the other.. (same but different) a decision maybe..

and then of course as my friend reminded me from the movie Dirty Dancing...... “no one puts baby in the corner” and boy does that resonate with me..
