Among a gathering of relative strangers
Posing for documentation of their presence in that moment
In that transitional place
Away from home and its comforts
Away from all that you previously knew
But one would never know of the uncertainty felt
This was a response to my presence in a group photo for the residents of the dormitory I lived in, Freshman year (1974-75) at Oregon State University. I was there in the photo, face blurred, surrounded by people that I barely knew and looking like we were one happy group.
