(a short prayer)
All of India. Things inspire.
A Crumpled smoke.
A rope without motion,
Draped over step.
I do my best irritation
Of an antique song.
Make a bed of weather,
String two minds together
Frayed at the cuff like
Dream; a body in the
Ganges, a dripping faucet.
A corset. Some kind of
Kindness,
A robe of blindness
Mapping moons on the nape of neck...
***
A tremendous pressure lifting... an entreaty of true work is less like a message than a missive; letter by letter, the spell's formation. Level. Leavened; manna. Density.
Happy ghost, now. Not tired enough to sleep, not awake enough to haunt, to hunt. This is not poem enough to chain a rattle to a crib. Rattle a chain. A thin one bells like ribs of silver mouse or snake. Take your time to be near it.
To hear it.
good night,
rain.

Yeah, I'd love to share some work with yas.
I only have one piece where I am, a smallish study for a large painting called 'mothersdayeveryday' from the 'Gothic Camoflauge' series. I can maybe photo it and post it, but all I got is el cheapo digital, so it might not look so great, but I'll try.
In one of your photos I noticed a painting behind you that was sorta brownish-ochre with calligraphic markings strategically dispersed in the field. Who did that one?
The painting in these photos? Jason did that.
