death (having lost) put on his universe
and yawned: it looks like rain
(theyve played for timelessness
with chips of when)
thats yours; I guess
youll have to loan me pain
to take the hearse,
see you again.
love (having found) wound up such pretty toys
as themselves could not know:
the earth tinily whirls;
while daisies grow
(and boys and girls
have whispered thus...

I love Tannith Lee!
actually I've only read the flat earth series (repeatedly) and the wolf tower series- one - I think that's what it's called- young adult type stuff, as opposed to the flat earth, which is adult adult.
when I first read Night's master, it was around the time of tipper Gore and all of the warning labels coming out. Give or take a year. I must have read it in 6th grade, because I forgot it in my language arts class room, and my teacher eventually returned it to me with great misgivings.
I clearly remember reading this part, and not getting it, and being sure that there was some deliciuos adult secret hidden behind all of the imagery.
"The phallus of the Demon, (neither icy nor burning), enterered him as a king enters a kingdom conquered,adoring, his by right of surrender. The phallus was a tower which pierced the gate, the vitals of the citadel of his inner world."
I thought it was great that I could read all sorts of things, (Piers Anthony, author of the charmingly all ages xanthe books also wrote some books with dirty bits, as I discovered. ) but that a movie with boobs in it or a cd that said "Fuck" I might not be able to see or hear.
anyway,
DSL on the 20th!!!!

ahh the tree of life is a beautiful sigil of the man/woman and the universe. great fun.
the tree is split into three "branches" or pillars. One down the middle, represeting the pure and balanced energy of divinity, and one on each the left and the right. the left and the right represent all the opposite tendencies of things (intellect/emotion and so on)
treeoflife
yesod is #9, and where all three pillars merge; thus it is a place of resolution and combination. it is related to the moon, and to the astral dreamscape. The spiritual state identified in Chassidut as corresponding to the sefirah of yesod is that of emet (truth), in the sense of the power to "verify" one's convictions and emotions in action and to achieve true self-fulfillment in life.

endings are always so hard. its so much more fitting to go down in flames than to simply feel the cold seep into yr bones until there is no warmth to be found. it does, indeed, sound harrowing.
however, yay that yr returning to a dreaming place - yr dreams will always eventually be found.
love as always!

Sweet, it does my heart good to know that you are finding such joy in your life. Winter will soon be on its way out the door, if February goes nearly as fast as January seemed to.
You will be doing the gardening and outdoor meditation in no time.
Much admiration,

He he. Yes, you can say you knew before my great demise into debauchery.
Hope your dreams keep you safe when you sleep and the empty bed can bear only one for as long as it needs.
Keep safe and warm,
Love, T.

An Astronomical Question
What would happen if God leaned down
And gave you a full wet kiss?
Hafiz doesn't mind answering astronomical questions like that:
You would surely start reciting all day, inebriated,
Rogue-poems like this.
-Shams-ud-din Muhammad aka Hafiz.
Edited for the smacker...

I don't suppose it makes you feel any better, but thoughts of my thesis, the Portland drizzle, grading papers make me want to sleep 12 hours a day, too...and sometimes I do! 
Maybe a little Monty Python to cheer you up? Perhaps the rabbit scene from Holy Grail? I met Michael Palin when I was living in Germany some years ago...mistaking me for a local, he praised my English...

thank you for the techie tips, most stari faire! hope that yr wellish and swellish.
You like that old black cat do you ? well shes called Poppy and I would let her stay with me but she has the irritating habit of walking on your head at 4am and demanding attention . She comes in the window during the summer and ruins a lovely dream by leaping on you and demanding food.
