your words and intents
I'll give you what I can.
a song, a sentiment.
a half cooked notion.
a feeling, a rhythm
riffs wrapped in ditties
fingers reaching for a certain sound
you were summoned here
now what have you?
I ask you for an offering
more or less
significant
something real
(or imagined)
next to nothing
it's not too much to ask.
though you must be ready to listen.
for if you won't hear my words, the are worth no more than silence
afterall.
I offer you this sound,
though to receive it, you must desire
you must listen, feel, dance, sing, sway,
give yourself over to the incantation
I give you the means to seek me out.
a golden gift to be discovered.
but you must care enough
to take it in. to make an offering in return.
it can take many forms
shapeshifting in dreams
it tells you what it means
but you have to want to understand.
otherwise,
this too is meaningless....

for instance
Wed, October 18, 2006 - 9:01 AMthere is a shadow box paper doll house of picture postcard cut outs & painted window frames. shadow puppets entangle marionetts playing broken autoharp strings. dusty fiddle fingers trace an etherial strain of melody. in this box, old skeleton bones pantomime a player piano, acting out the witches' dance with a haunted finesse. strings ring as if possesed of the ghosts of gongs from long ago, a strange sweet song fading from dreams into the wake. -

Re: for instance
Mon, October 23, 2006 - 1:46 PMto sleep eternal in a temple of dreams, thin veils of silken gause mask the presence of day or night, we sway puppet-like on those spidery strands. and there in that looking glass, a magic mirror of quick silver images frozen in time, reflect the steps of the match stick men, dancing in time to cricket fiddles. to stay in this place hour glass sands seem to run forever & never seem to drain....
