and i was alive in the blizzard of the blossoming pear,
myself i stood in the storm of the bird-cherry tree.
it was all leaflife and starshower, unerring, self-shattering
power,
and it was all aimed at me.
what is the dire delight flowering feeling always earth?
what is being? what is truth?
blossoms rupture and rapture the air,
all hover and hammer,
time intensified and time intolerable, sweetness raveling rot.
it is now. it is not.

a few notes...finally i have renewed my passport as helped by the lovely talented super human kindness åsa of the swedish church magazine in london. fridays has been spent in art class with the wonderful jason rose whom walked me through an under painting recently (while too working on my girls...) which i did with my own style but maybe more importantly my fave colours:))) i had other mornings with a lovely tony whom helps me with my life. other from that i continued war & peace by tolstoy and its volume II edition...ohlalala the language:))) adore adore adore. it's been a lot of creation happenings as well.
too every day is a day towards light. that brings me joy!
