The Lonely Carrier muffles his packages of grief, sorrow, pain, and despair in Passages of Lullaby ruminations.
Lining them up by the bed ready for delivery.
We share speckled eye Language so discreet outsiders cannot detect our kaleidoscopic prism of splashes and flashes exchanged within our voluminous Silhouettes.
Sometimes Sea spray. Other times Waterfalls.
Often the Ones who Shine Brightest are easily broken.
A Nod. A smile. A hand held comforter. A barely there gesture. We are Luminous Lunar who open not our Lips. Only our One entwined Ribbon Soul. We Dream of Gossamer Days and Pastel Nights.
It’s a Long Walk Home My friend. A Long walk home. But the pier is not far away.
Shorter now as We make the Journey.
For we have known thorny biers that draw blood feeding majestic Trees for future generations.
Ferryman awaits us at the piers edge for theSweet Home going Voyage
Traversing Sands of Time. Docking our Ships in Tranquility.
If you were given $22 million tax free dollars (any currency), what is the first thing you would do? (This is just a dream question, remember anything can happen in SYW.)
QUIT MY JOB!!
Finally get a place of my own. A small one story house (No stairs) with a front and back yards. And at least 3 Full Bathrooms! In My Dream House I would have my Own Large roomy art/writing studio. My art studio would be big enough for me to have my own personal Art Show! I would also adopt more cats and dogs.
Stephen and I plus a care giver/helper would take a month long vacation to the Caribbean! In fact I would move out of New York during the winter months to Florida, Hawaii or California as my body cannot handle Cold freezing NY winters.
Also I’d have my own personal Limo Drivers since I cannot drive and if I were to move to a more rural location with no transportation that would be the only way for me to get around.
In what do you find the simplest of joys?
Spending time with my brother Stephen and being outdoors during warm weather in Nature.
What would be your ideal birthday present, and why?
Since I was born in February when it is freezing cold in New York if somebody would give me a month long or even two weeks in Hawaii that would be a Blessing! Folks My 60th Birthday is coming up February 2019 so Feel Free to purchase a round trip ticket for me! Thanks in Advance!!
Do you use paper money? If so is your money organized sequentially according to denomination?
Yes. I live in a poor working class neighborhood where many of the stores don’t take cards, credit or debit. Even the Metro Card machines where you purchase your Metro Card to ride the bus/subway sometimes don’t take cards. Cash rules. Therefore I always have paper money but not organized.
Are You comfortable doing nothing? For long stretches of time?
This is my retirement Theme Song because by the time I’m 60 which is next year I will be retired!! I believe the song answers the question. Doing nothing will be my new way of life!! I’ve been working since 1976 so it’s about time to do nothing or anything I want to do!
What is your greatest strength?
Toughness and endurance.
What did you appreciate or what made you smile this past week? Feel free to use a quote, a photo, a story, or even a combination.
The Cherry Blossoms
My Latest Most Recent Painting. It does not yet have a name. I’m open to suggestions. Please give me your thoughts on what I should call this painting!
I was trying to get it more like the experienced artist in the below video but mine did not come out like his. However I enjoyed painting outside in our backyard in this balmy 71 degree warm weather! Fun!
Here are two collages that I’m working on at the moment. These might be more abstract surrealist paintings than collages but I will still incorporate some picture/photo elements into each.
Right now they are unfinished but I’m not in any hurry. It is just a pleasure and a great deal of fun to work on them. Not really work at all but a creative and enjoyable activity that is relaxing and fun. Very therapeutic.
Allows plenty of room to experiment and just try different painting hacks. Makes me happy to have something in the pipeline. Another way to express my creativity by combining two hobbies that I Love; photography and collages.
