Excuses

wishing rest
carrying water to
soil often not that
thankful
Sun dripping
energy
wanting
rest from
the leaching
flowers taking
all for granted
Rivers massaging
clean the mess
made by this year's
shedding
only to make it
all again
In your room
but out there
excuses are
not natural

these next four images are from me occupying my time during a slow day at work yesterday.
our management, god bless 'em, likes to treat us like silly little children. their latest stroke of genius is, in response to our "gossip problem, which we discovered after a thorough investigation", to post huge pink signs all over the office that say "gossip free zone."

Fire and Flood
I'm the little

you must protect
The older

that you must

The graphic

loved
The way

Pink Portal
This is your Captain Speaking;
slowly
unravelling
de-evolving
I am sad and happy to announce that the gate is open and riding the Stone Aged Rocket I have passed through into the next world. Although you don't beleive me, Im not the same dude.
I don't know anything
I have no style.
My three days have been your 3 weeks. At this rate Ill be a new born baby by the time I get back to Ithica.
Smooth as silk.
Im on an Island waiting for the full moon. Very alone. Forgetting how to speak. Remembering how to sing.
It's too late now.
I won't come down.
Work to be done.
Im going in alone.
Drink my tears.
Savour my fears.
Now they're gone.
Im going in alone.

The Bending of the Gates
.jpg)
Image is public domain: French artist Gustave Doré (1832-1883)Ithaka
As you set out for Ithaka
hope your road is a long one,
full of adventure, full of discovery.
Laistrygonians, Cyclops,
angry Poseidon-don't be afraid of them:
you'll never find things like that on your way
as long as you keep your thoughts raised high,
as long as a rare excitement
stirs your spirit and your body.
Laistrygonians, Cyclops,
wild Poseidon-you won't encounter them
unless you bring them along inside your soul,
unless your soul sets them up in front of you.
Hope your road is a long one.
May there be many summer mornings when,
with what pleasure, what joy, you enter harbors
you're seeing for the first time;
may you stop at Phoenician trading stations
to buy fine things, mother of pearl and coral, amber and ebony,
sensual perfume of every kind
- as many sensual perfumes as you can;
and may you visit many Egyptian cities
to learn and go on learning from their scholars.
Keep Ithaka always in your mind.
Arriving there is what you're destined for.
But don't hurry the journey at all.
Better if it lasts for years,
so you're old by the time you reach the island,
wealthy with all you've gained on the way,
not expecting Ithaka to make you rich.
Ithaka gave you the marvelous journey.
Without her you wouldn't have set out.
She has nothing left to give you now.
And if you find her poor, Ithaka won't have fooled you.
Wise as you will have become, so full of experience,
you'll have understood by then what these Ithakas mean.
C.P. Cavafy(1863-1933)

Welcome the high
Welcome the safety of coming down.
Have you lost or gained your mind?
Will I be always me?
Or will another take my place?
Ive passed through the pink portal and indeed,
everything IS pink on the other side.
Aboard the stone aged rocket
I sat in business class
and had free wine
and strange chinese smiles
Shanghai!
Now its the circus. Every type of people everywhere.
And I wonder what YOU would be like if YOU were here.
Why are you not here?
Folk Fest City of Angels
The moon I see is the same one you see and it is half full.
The next stage is the lunar surface itself in a weeks time.
I smuggled some spice in my bag.

wikipedia and truth
this is part of an article that appeared on msn today:
Perhaps the most recognized application of open-source technology in the world, Wikipedia is the online encyclopedia that has become a research staple for millions of Web users.
Written collaboratively by volunteers, Wikipedia has become a smash success. The free site includes more than 845,000 articles in English alone and has won a loyal legion of fans. John Seigenthaler does not number among them.
In an op-ed published Thursday in USA Today, Seigenthaler wrote about his anguish after learning about a false Wikipedia entry that listed him as having been briefly suspected of involvement in the assassinations of both John Kennedy and Robert Kennedy. The 78-year-old Seigenthaler--a former assistant attorney general working under Bobby Kennedy--got Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales to delete the defamatory information in October. Unfortunately, that was four months after the original posting.
Maybe this is part of the price that we're going to have to pay for the open approach where the system's very strength sometimes turns out to be its Achilles' heel: Somebody nursing a grudge can always pervert or airbrush the historical record. To be sure, it can happen in the so-called proprietary or for-profit world as well. The hope is that the collective wisdom of the cyberworld can police the system to catch the mistakes sooner rather than later.

Wow I have a really small bag thats got about one pair of clothes, various electronic devices and a chest with 5000 american dollars.
I drank some spicey coffee and some massive headphones and now Im dancing down these escalators.
The Interdimensional Spice Boy
Wow, Im spending 16 hours or so in this ginormous space station of plastic-glass and metal-bricks.
Im really really happy.
