always liked Mr. Waterhouse's work.
first time i laid eyes on it -- the museum @ Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego.
with the Old Timers minding the halls.
wrinkled and gray.
sporting red and gold.
an eagle, globe and anchor ball cap.
some green tattoo blurred by the sun on their forearm.
looking @ us kids…like we had it all.
it wasn't the best of times -- the DIs just around the corner ready snatch us back.
but it gave you hope.
a little @ least...
