something
like a jungle exploration...
inside your mind..
.membrane borders give
way and
shiver
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
striking
a balance
between
visions of
space and
time:
retreat...to escape the paralysis of immersion
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
hope
flies through our souls, unseen
but for a
shimmer on
the horizon
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
don´t
fear
the candy-
man, so well-travelled
on the
paths of perpetual wonder, he knows: transcendence
is by nature transitory
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
take
a stroll
and ask your-
self: if you
woke up one
day in
paradise,
would you recognize it?
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
colors
wither, bleed,
withdraw;
only our
momory, like
a reflection,
dimly captures scraps of
their deflated essence
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
we
annoint
certain
moments
with
meaning,
leave others unscathed
- they all
know far
better
than we can imagine...
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
twilight
is a
time of
coming and
going,
opening
and closing, passage
under
the spell
of awes
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
the
future
lures us
like a
backdrop,
pulling
aside in
the last
moment
to unveil
a yet
deeper
dream |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
daring
to
dive with
our eyes
wide open
we see
the naked
truth:
disquieting, reassuring, indescribable |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
"i
remember being here once, long ago, it was not a dream but
an
expectation, a place i was going to and did not yet know,
but could
clearly see before me..." |
| |
|
|
 |
|
"there
is a softness which is tough, a coolness which is warm,
a
language which means nothing, a surprise i welcome like
an old
friend..."
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
"i
want the world to believe in me, but it does not answer,
this
world of mine i believe in tells me to wait, listening with
an ear
that sees all..." |
| |
|
|
 |
|
"this
dance is dedicated to that ambassador of the divine called
joy,
we laugh and shine and wish him well, he nods mysteriously
and we are
satisfied" |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
"temple
of my tears, whisper me your sorrows...i will visit you
daily
with gifts of light and wonder...and even as i carry you,
you will
carry me..." |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
"take
the falcon for a short fly around the mountains, will you
honey, then let us drink a glass of that old whistful wine
and watch
the autumn rise..." |
| |
|
|
 |
|
"because
i live here, i know a beauty masked to the neon blinded,
only a chosen few know the pleasures of sledding down slopes
of
slippery green over the amber sky..." |
| |
|
|
 |
|
"this
is a map of the mind's eye, follow the light but don't forget
to take in the scenery along the way, call information for
the latest
weather forecast..." |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
"the
root of all joy is beauty: silent, clear, without demand,
presumptuous even, but never vain..." |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
"make
a sound of thankfulness: a song or a groan, a cry or a laugh,
a
departure from your voice, an encounter with immortal ecstasy..."
