So this, my dear friend, is the truth in its horrifying entirety, and we shall discover together what exactly it is that we seek. The intention here, is to tell my story and to purge all existence until I stand pure and full of light, face forward.

Crackerjack Surprise.
Simple solo Force
feel
fake
free
Glimmering forefront
Storefront solitude
Flame flicker inhalations
Inept exploration
Exempt exile
It's not the same now without your watchful eye. Slave to simplistic survival. Spoiled determinatiion to sink under. Heavy breath heaving chest enigmatic arch. Examination of introversion and implied diversion. Rising suffocating heat hordes comfort complicating coorelated fates.
How can one eighty spin so fast and patterns dance like leaves in plaster and corners? Failure to withold hopes and forward gravitational flow. Waiting for the sunrise I am bored searching for some connection that is a gift of some Christmas that will never arrive.
Fingers crossed and frozen breath as heartbeats pound away.

Sizzle // Fizzle
And just like that severe sinks into flash.
Sizzle
fizzle and
follow me under the overhang to
gorge on the heat exchange.
Soft redivivus rumble
symphonius synch of heart
and head
and hands.
Within your speech is a
literal touch
a tremble a tickle of
fiber and being and
beyond that the silence it leaves behind is austere and taciturn.
Physiological philosophies peak and prick at my skin- begging for exoneration.....

Complicated coordination inept at delivering definition deepens my needs.

(What Actions)
what actions?
once again the
power of the pen prevails
(like winds in sails on the seas of anonymity....)
we are but vessels of this
sacred space,
time,
place
me in the palm of your hand and
squeeze
so
tight.
There are no more actions here tonite. . . .

Macro // Waves
It's true. I love to use macro in the creation of my abstract fine art pieces. It's more than the guesswork behind what the image really is- I love a good puzzle, but more importantly it is an expression of how the lines blur between the "big picture" and the singling out of one minute element of the picture. There is simplistic compexity there- it IS an oxymoron. This oxymoron is the construct of humanity, biology, music, photography....it is a study of introspection.
This set was taken somewhere in Lisbon. Even I don't remember where. . . some rotting wall.....

Stew // Salt
There is a stew.
There is a stew whose flavor changes with each hour is simmers.
There is a stew whose flavor bitters with each hour that it rots.
There is a pot.
There is a pot who I’ve been watching.
There is a pot whose lid I’ve tried to keep affixed.
There is stew erupting from a pot whose lid I’ve tried to keep affixed.
And I can’t find the salt. I can’t find the wound. I can’t find the spoon.

Waiting // Line
Waiting line wash out weakens willingness to withstand an abbreviated wisdom. Shy particles of sound fall from your lips like snowflakes each perfect and unparalleled. But they fall with such weight and evaporate in our heat instantly, leaving me three seasons hence in significant silence.
Do leaves not fall as such leaving underfoot a symphony of percussive perfection, or the soft swoosh of the seeds that dance and twirl in the air? Oh! That you were able to perennially perform for me the delicacies of acknowledgable adulation instead of the absence administered.
Wrestling to clear myself of sticky cobweb austerity and surface to squirm in my stance so sequestered. Shine solemnity within my swept up memory and release me from propriety. Dance foresight, lead me to leap from ledges, at risk of the fabled fall.

I love the moments here, of her full awareness, to distraction to complete internalization where we are, as a viewer, completely locked out.
