Living in the realm of dream, surrealism, wine and song. Writes, acts, cries, has tantrums, disappears, hosts a pod.
Such a beautiful book, richly describing the wonderful women of 1920's Egyptian theatre. Inspiring.

there is reason in the air
windmills crushing ideas
fancy footwork dizzying eyes
teachers offering more learning
and
March hares sing solo
while clouds wish for rain
angels tread the stolen pavements
and all of time still #learning to walk

you always speak back to me
never silence with you, always
noise, a jackhammer of words
pretending a support while
chipping the plaster, burning
my skin, gouging my eyes raw

I can’t lose you
my #reflection
closer to me
than reality

when she ran the wind in her hair echoed distance
she would clock in minutes, burnout for milliseconds
when her body clock burned, she dared not look back
she was #timed to perfection, weary limbs ached
comfort never gained riches, she said, as her breath faded into traffic noise

#vss365 Sometimes life was divine. Sometimes it was hell. The difference was a divine razor edge and a punched ticket. With only one chance to sway the balance and buy more #time.

#relevant

my place in the world is irrelevant
the sea ebbs, flows, heart beats
the outcome of what I see means little;
yet it gives breath, life begins again
when storms pass, raindrops from eyes fade
your skin glows:
it is you who makes it relevant

#vss365 ‘ers you are fabulous-yesterdays writing was bang on relevant, which leads on nicely to asking, is my goal relevant…

Is it worthwhile to me? Is it indeed my goal, or has it been forced upon me by someone else?

dreams are sentient memories
of eyes, sometimes blue,
of lips, anticipating, releasing
your nose, often scenting the scene
I fall into #specifics, a carousel of doubt
sinking into oblivion, your mind;
when we wake, there is sun
disappearing over the hill,
gone forever

we see the lights
become the beacon, release;
there’s a camera lens in all our eyes
an obscura, a reality of cloud;
when the doubts form,
like mountains from ocean,
burst into #action -
the curtain rises...

Obviously the game was very far from #reality, but that was fine for Rory. He didn’t care for ultra-realistic graphics and physics because he had enough of ultra-realistic in real life.

Then again, he didn’t like cartoonish games, either. There was a middle ground and the game sat in it.

Hogan understood the #reality of the situation, but, like Dylan, he kept it to himself until they were alone in their racks at the safe house.

The war was going badly. All the odds pointed toward annihilation for the human race, but that didn’t matter. All that mattered was the trying.

when the sand blasts
the creases of your skin,
freezing memories, halting
discarded elements of #reality -
doors open up, glimpses of hope
a peeling tangerine just out of reach
or perhaps, another dimension...

#goal sends thought to gaol, wrapped in plastic
protection from the cold, from the mind, from the disasters.

fall into the bowl; we pursue perfection, dying on our sword, smiling as the blade slices; we are velvet cake, good times around the corner, promises burnt.

In order 2make change, focus can help.
After understanding the true issue, the next step is to clearly define & focus on a goal

The next word comes from the acronym GROW
G is for a clearly defined goal.
