06.30.2012 The wet, rainy season is a lie layered with truth.
Rain is a wild and crazy lost midnight rambler. Looking for love. Chasing illusions is aggravation in the whirlpool.
Rain returns to a room under night cover. Mystery is out.
A sprite of 25 wore the silver flower ring with 7 petals. Consternation in Rain's heart felt the sense of loss forever. Petals transformed tears into hope.
Under a weak light money mama smiled through crooked teeth.
Flower was beautiful in an immature petulant passive way. Her lack of confidence met betrayal.
Rain blossomed her fragrance with instinctual objectivity.
06.25.2012 Above the 45 post by David duChemin contains this gem.
"In the artist’s life there are two axes: on the Y axis is challenge (or opportunities), on the X is ability.
"When the opportunities we take equal the talent or ability we have, we are living on the 45-degree angle formed between the two. Perfect balance, and generally, to put it into blunt terms, stagnation.
"But when the opportunities we create or seize seem to outpace the talent or ability we have, we grow in that ability to meet the opportunity, and are living above the 45."
Expand, evolve, explore, take risks.
