coloured orbs in the dusk

it takes time for your eyes to adjust to darkness. while your pupils dilate, use a combination of meandering dream shapes and vivid imagination to re-orient yourself within the parameters of your newly unknown surroundings.

newly unknown though they may be, truly unknown they are not. your surroundings are composed of the individual components which make up all experience... you have been here before, but it was not you, and they were not here.

being surrounded by an unfamiliar configuration can feel disorienting. it is common to experience the urge to discern, or grasp at things before they have re-atomized.


do not grasp. just be present. clear. sentient. interactive.


wherever it is, that you are.

tidal currents

ebb and flow
temperatures fluctuating in the currents of water
reflected into the air we breathe
as we wade
chest deep and together
striding slow motion into the resistance of liquid
landing blind onto sand and rock
or the flutter of subaqueous fauna

low tides

Today we spent a few hours in the ocean,
and on the sand, and in the mud, drenched in sun
wading in the surf, stepping on clams and chirping
whenever small flathead fish darted into our feet.
we oogled dogs of all sizes, and fish and birds and crabs.
the salty ocean air smelled fresh and sweet
as it passed us over on it's westerly breeze.
we observed life, in it's active energies and in it's absence
we observed death, drenched in sunlight.
