Dionysus In Retrograde

The key was civility
Crumbs of buildings
In her pocket
Bread of where we lived...)

Being in love with the songless
Can tilt the water and drown the wolves.
The moon is full, fat in fact, a thin
Finger probes naval, finding stiff
Fur around the crater. She appears
With urine at an angle. Some weight
And she cries. At home, we called
"Concrete" and "Nature Spins"
Inhabitants of the warning. Nostrils
Where the horses run through.
That's enough to...

this poem gave me a very very strong feeling. i don't even know what it was, just as i read it, i felt like something was pulling my chest, like my heart was trying to get out.
ohhh, i just figured out what that feeling was.
it made me happy.

And unfortunatly at the moment I have nothing left to give.
Yes I am alive or at least I was the last time I checked.
Lovely poem as always dear.
I kinda know how ya feel although I don't have the means to relocate myself or I doubt I would be anywhere for too long. Ah well.
Hope you have a good day.

Thanks, thanks a lot - I appreciate it. I'm worn out! Believe it or not I typed that out once already, but when I went to post it I'd been logged out! 
There's a painting up now but it's not too clear.
Thanks for everything you said about my last entry as well; I wanted to go into it all with you but I'm beat right now
I'll try tomorrow. Let's hope my wrists work.

Able self to speak for no one.)
The seasons divorce the remnant of label.
A sound gathers in the arms of pain.
Streets are a whim to the likes of palace
Nothing spins, nothing's still. Traverse
The issue, curse the simple shoulder
As it's seen. Mould the boundries

"Come here Stay" - that's funny I'm not sure I understand the analogy though; but I'll figure it out eventually.
As to your poem, I have these things to say - 1. I like monks. 2. Communication is very difficult. and 3. What's "undersamesky"?

She walks American, cur chirping
On ass-end of satellite.
Ribbons of wrist, fingers backward;
Scent acid-floral; green
Feet, red mud, blood and dirt.

Or inside
Came to me. Dogs
In the echo
Of moon, a dead
Bald, baby
Bird, a shape
Like
Elderly
Neck
To a hangman
Mouth agape
At knots of reason...)

Yeah, ok, that's pretty damn puzzling as well 
I'll interpret my dream in my next entry, for anyone who's curious.
The image at the bottom is a close-up of a Tau symbol painted by Saint Francis himself. He used it everywhere he went, and recommended to others that they use it. It's a very mysterious and profound image. T
Selected Ambient Works vol. 2 is one of my favourite albums of all time, has been since I was about 18. A number of the tracks on there I think of as the pinnacle of music, even beyond the classical stuff I know.
I know how you feel about wanting the cold weather to come so you can wear your jacket; I'm dying to wear my new sweater.

Take pictures of your painting, sometime.

Psuedopod. Fake foot. Flatline inflated.
The innocent motion covers little ground.

And measured needles. None
Long enough
To puncture
The sky, so why cry?

Actually he is in the US until november( doing some neuroscience conference- religious leaders these days, honestly... )
Yeah I did reiki it a bit, funny you should say that though, I usually forget that I can and then like a day into a cold or whatever I suddenly remember that I can sort it out myself!
