Blue Ink


Standing in the sparkle and intimacy

Of a Byzantine church

I have not a reference point.

I have no memories to make

This any more real, or less

I am by myself

In the bowels of the universe.

And laced with the anxious tremor

Of not knowing where

To lay my head tomorrow night

I am

Writing this poem

On the back of my hand

In blue ink

For all the world

To see.

  1. Wait 'til you take a shower or wash your hands and get to ponder on the metaphysical ramifications of watching your genius washing down the drain.

    Nice lines. You are chiseling away the course rock.

  3. oops! sorry i'm slow seeing this and commenting. it was pretty crazy here at the beach with extra people, but now it's just mark and kate and viola. viola is naping, and mark and kate are playing our version of long-distance bocce on the huge flat oregon beach in front of the house. they will all leave tomorrow - mark to canada to ski, and kate and viola to la for a couple days before they fly home to florence.
    i love the newest photos. and as much as i like the ones that show where you are, i like even more the photos of the people that you see, especially the children. it reminds us of how much more the same we are all, rather than how different. love, emily c xo

  5. My Dear One--Anam Cara--

    You have run a true spontaneous vision quest gauntlet. You are not being spared experience. You are being invited, challenged, to maintain balance through subtle body work, through energetics, through the richs of Intuitive Technology. You are learning to love your Native Language in the way that only expatriots can love. You are learning to count on your sense of an "international" language, which always includes the Somatic, the Body Language and Wisdom which crosses over all barriers.

    My Dear--there is no better way to be inducted into the great international Tribe. Now, you go to Mary Branley.

    The world has opened herself to you like a flower. You have no requirement but to BE-COME!

    Bless you, Shalom, Slante, Inche Alah!

    Marcie
