Memory as Fiction

Rainy season. Dancing black birds inside dark leafed night.

Shuffling wings, rustling feathered bodies.

"Don't forget to bring the sewing kit back," she said.

Stitch a long highway, rolling thunder,

fast clouds, heavy cool tropical rain, cool refreshing music.

A single drop of water on a red hibiscus. 

Metta.

Year of the Ox

Joyful Chinese New Year! It is the year of the Ox. Strong, conservative, patient, hard working, loyal.

We are in the middle of a total solar eclipse. 0606 GMT to 0952 GMT. It is traversing the Indian ocean toward Mindanao where it will open its light shade.

Birds sing dusk twilight songs. Bored children in a green field play yo-yo. They need solitude. Nature. They have 532 "friends" on a social network website. They feel strangely alone. They are alone. Authentic. Restless. Their televisions tell them to seek short attention spans.

They are Slumdog Millionaires. See it. Rotten Tomatoes more...

The sun spans the moon. Lotus leaves dance in piano winds. Rolling thunder.

Speak in silence. More...
