Love song museA man steps into an open space at dawn, and pauses, reflecting
Then, lifting his eyes, he gazes out toward the East
While reaching for a parchment, which he places before him
And waits for an song, unsung, to come from some inner place

Soon, on a gentle breeze, comes the sweet whisper of a woman's wisdom
A soft Northern wind caresses his ear, as she speaks wondrous things
Her words ebb and flow through his mind, mingling with his own
Forming meaning within the inner places, which is then spoken

Words and shapes tumble forth, like a dream realized, onto the parchment
The page is darkened, written, forming the sweetest of love songs
Until, h

Divine JusticeXystus stood on the edge of the plain, overlooking the apocalyptic scene before him, the littered debris and detritus of a spontaneous, furious war and conflagration that had flared briefly just moments before. It had been so brief that if he had not been there on time he would have missed it, and that was the last thing on earth he wanted to happen. Curiously though there was an almost supernatural peace and calm that seemed to prevail. There was also a sweet smell of incense carried on the gentle breeze that stirred his hair, which was strange indeed, sickening too! So Xystus, having seen similar wars on these killing fields before, and hav

"Art and friendship are absolutely connected... Friendship is, after all, sharing a deep part of yourself with another person and receiving the same back." --- Nina Allen Freeman

Prologue
"The medium is the message" --- Marshall McLuhan

Semiotic dreaming may be recognized &/or understood in the quote by Marshall McLuhan, "One thing about which fish know exactly nothing is water, since they have no anti-envir

If you love something set it freeShe stepped out onto the earth of the new country
After a life already of wear and tear, seeking a new beginning
Seeking a home, a soulmate, a passionate love

An organized meeting, an arranged opportunity made
A man presents himself perchance to hope
But she turns aside, unable to countenance the connection

For a moment she dreams, then another steps out of the shadows
As he speaks tenderly her heart is melted, care forgotten
She takes him to herself, to have & hold

Then an intervening, intrusions, interference, an impeding occurs
A rupture happens, driving them apart
And for a moment her heart breaks yet again

Then she gathers he

Angelus redemptio, the turning...Across dark realms that seek the night
Ever before dawn's first fingers light
On wings pitch black, a princess here
Comes, to reap a soul, bringing fear

She's found the one to give her power
Here the wraith, now, this hour
To seek him out was her vow
Her shadow falling quickly now

Gentle caress, until he, in trance
Dreams the dreams that speak mischance
Agony, bliss, such driven love
Sweet moment this, enchantment above

Until his self, ripped and riven
From the body, is finally driven
Bringing sleep, to crave for peace
As broken, failing, he must decease

Now a shell, a ruin, and lying
This moment, this time, simply dying

Sweet dream pathwaysNow she sleeps, a sweet repose
Blue black hair fans about
And as silence calls her name
Her lovely unturned face, now secret smiles

As dreaming dreams of things unsaid
Wonderful images begin to flow
That are ever longing and which lead
To the wishing of wishes, but instead

Her soul slips free, rising, rising
Ever higher, riding the dreaming pathways
Heavenly bent and full of intent
Harmonics singing in her head

Until a moment that she touches
The soul of another, a lonely seeker
Meeting as a tender embrace
Where the eternal question is put,

"Be mine?"

Loving souls live among usMy dear friend suffers from hurt, a lack of hope
The agony of loss and others despair
Yet she is unable to feel the brokenness
That brings the cleansing, healing flow of tears

Too much pain in such a short time
Rushes at the soul breaking it in two
So quick that she feels the frozenness
Of a heart rendered but not yet aware

Though the time will come as she waits and waits
When the grief will seep through her being
Etching itself upon her lovely soul
Like delicate filigreed golden threads

So that she shines like the moon itself
Reflecting the care and love for others
That creates a precious person of meaning
One we would all ye

An Australian song for a tragic timeTRAGEDY
Across the Great Southern Land the seasons change  
The spring now past, the long summer comes 
Hot and hotter, temperature now thirties, forties 
Forest and grasslands drying fast, fuel to burn

While to this tinderbox land, tragedy comes searching  
For something new, new vistas perhaps, 
Yet to incite the anguish its presence brings 
Exaggerated sorrows, and grief to many

So crouching now, this fearsome thing 
Gazes round, until dramatic change,  
Ever hotter, a fierce sun acknowledging now, 
And so the land burns as the great fires return

Raging, roaring, respecting nothing, none
 Flames lick high, higher, smoke, and cinders fly
Changing weather, threatening, fearsome 
Burning the land, consuming, threatening all  

BITTER

Nothing stops it, incensed, turbulent, hot as hell
 As tragedy stands, dark and bitter, ashen faced
 Torn and blackened,

Yes, good, I'm not losing it after all... Seems so long ago. What's the actual color of the type of red you use in your artwork?
