• On Dreams

    meaningless pictures imagined conversations unsettled senses ~ n.b.

I have started having dreams; wake up shocked at the images that bubble into my conscience without content warnings. ~

    lunatic repetition tide in, tide out, back and forth set your clock by it n.b. Imagine if we had time pieces attuned to the tides, not set from Greenwich Meridian; would we be more sensitive to our planet’s music? CLP 25/04/2021

  • On Water xvi

    that helicopter on a beeline up the coast air-sea rescue, obvs n.b. The elements of water and air combine to tragic effect at weekends when the concoction of homo-sapiens, alcohol and sunshine dull the mind, drown common-sense. CLP 25/04/2021
