Aching thoughts I dreamed of streets often dark light of some thought that had and still has meaning I didn't spend hours although I wanted to taken photographs later 'when I knew what they were' I thought vision was how we spoke words but visions are spoken in your mind and a photograph is for seconds Like lunch Dreaming as a kid I sought a dark street as you can't see someone dark in a dark street and colour is nothing more than colour or half colour or dress and freedom and peace is there for those seconds in your mind for in every 'bird of array' is one that is acknowledged But to be different to leave is to speak words What Chinese culture could be worse than the English "know your place" or the Japanese "a raised nail is knocked down" In words you see the world 'if you can' and you don't experience the world - just a few snaps of feeling, some coming back again - in so many words I will try and parody Wordsworth on Singapore 'Watching women swinging picks in the evening air watching the 'of the night' as you also saw the umbrellas of women moving through the jungle Swinging backwards and forwards dancing, dancing, as buds in an early season who developed late in the previous year and retain "their magic" Magic that swayed touching everyone with life |

I haven't written in this style in a long time. I enjoyed this!  "I want to heal, I want to feel, like I'm close to something real" |

quote: This creates a magical vision, Bodger. To be able to be touched with life, when life itself is threatened is a gift of the heart. Love, Margherita |

I find I am going back to old styles I kicked against the traces for new styles and now I find myself understanding the old styles Bodger |
