Statistically, women in general show fewer cases of colorblindness. Is this due the dullness of the male senses; an atrophy genetically rendered because of generation after generation of mundane lives of heavy lifting and constant hunting, while women gussied up the cave to excite the eyes of babes and self?
Or...is it because women are more sensitive to the subtle, invisible body, which is naturally...

(Last dream first: she) plays the violin
Or I'd like to wish. A lie. The last tree
Becomes me. What to do? Build
A fire or a liar. A lie. How many strings?
Enough. To match her fingers. Ten. If
She played with her feet to begin
With, how would it sound different,
Be known? It's the same. (Scratch
Between the blades, muscle-red
Glade. A...

It's possible to be tired. I know this.

If there were a thousand eggs on the end of a fingertip, pointing as birds fly away would be a sinch, given time.
If heat mattered.
As it does.

I heard her words say 'hurt'
But she couldn't hear my words say 'please allow'

Sometimes dealing with the heart is like naming your dog "Stay"..."Come here Stay, come here Stay"....and the poor little fucker doesn't know what to do.
It's like a green stop sign.

Never kept a diary before. But I can see why people do. Feels good to get it out at the end of the day.

This morning: grumpy and tired from poor nights sleep.
Moved boxes in one by one by one.....
Scraped old, peeling paint from the bathroom ceiling.
Old, ratty curtains taken down. Lots of vaccuming.
Stiff shoulders from leaning and looking up...

Sweetly quiet mood amidst chaos. Boxes piled up and overflowing, newspaper glass-wrapping trash, trash, Goodwill donation boxes; foxes, beetles, weevils (not really...)
Her new house is feeling like home. I even took a nap on the couch today. Easily. Emotions are dying down a bit. God, it's been hard, but she's tougher than she ever was before. And centered. It's a new start, really a...

The inspiration for these miniatures was drawn from an SG photo set, 'Llona...Green Dress'.

A shapeless bonnet of blaze.
A fragrance of daylight,
Mine, you might soon
Say, the assuaged
Flesh, the tip upward
Of perfection; tasting
The root's chewed passage.
Well fed and fleck of
Gallop in the curtain
Like a mane on the
Scrawled harness of
Wall: A calender, identical
To the weight of history, thus
Invisibility encodes the casting
Of halo secured in ceremony

yeah, i know what you mean. i'm not too worried about any of it. there are always lots of good things to enjoy even when life is acting wonky.
i also find that it's hardly ever okay to be feeling shitty or sad or angry or whatever. our society isn't comfortable with people having negative emotions. i think it's good to be able to hold two experiences- the frustrated and the sad, but also the learning and joy of moving on and dealing with that stuff.
a lot of my negative energy happens when the universe doesn't treat me like the princess i believe myself to be. hahahhah. i expect a lot of VIP treatment i guess. but it isn't without gratitude.
i hope you are well....

I'm of the same mind: The relative anonymity of the internet usually just brings out the worst in people since they're not accountable, but it can also bring out the best and allow people to be more open.
No need to explain or apologize for long responses.
Take care
i hope you are well.
