Joycean epiphanies

the constructions
'had an epiphany' [350k hits]
or 'experienced an epiphany' [25k hits]
occur nowhere in joyce

because for joyce
it wasn't about
discovering something new

it was about
expressing one's true nature

so i find epiphanies
in flickrpix
not when the subject
is somehow wising up

but when they're
showing
their
selves
