lip sync...

 do you know how often i speak to you when you are not here?
how often i mouth words and phrases to the space you should be filling?

let your beauty manifest itself
without talking and calculation.
you are silent. it says for you: i am.
and comes in meaning thousandfold,
comes at long last over everyone.

painted eyes


elegant, you were born at night
sewn by soft hands
oh the softest hands
born in solitude
born of painted eyes
painted eyes
that always looked to the sky
oh those eyes
oh those eyes
they saw forever

focus...


focus that is connected to the heart is the most powerful force. 
we create in the heart, the emotional center,
because desire is the engine and spark of creativity.

she felt as if she was brimming,
always producing and hoarding more love inside her.
but there was no release.

bedside tables

what's next to your bed?


i found this little chair on the site on the road. i scraped most of the paint of it, i think i will leave as it is... it's cluttered with books, magazines (many more are spread out on the floor), children drawings and tea cups.

cy twombly








cy twombly| sadly passed away last week
 an artist i have admired for a long time.... 

graffiti is linear and it’s done with a pencil, and it’s like writing on walls. but in my paintings it’s more lyrical.

a sign

crying does not indicate that you are weak.
since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.

regard the moon...


regard the moon, 


la lune ne garde aucune rancune, 
she winks a feeble eye, 
she smiles into corners. 
she smooths the hair of the grass. 
the moon has lost her memory. 
a washed-out smallpox cracks her face, 
her hand twists a paper rose, 
that smells of dust and eau de Cologne, 
she is alone 
with all the old nocturnal smells 
that cross and cross across her brain"
t.s. eliot, from rhapsody on a windy night

nothing...

nothing that is can pause or stay;



the moon will wax, the moon will wane,
the mist and cloud will turn to rain,
the rain to mist and cloud again,
tomorrow be today.

a place in the heart





there is a place in the heart that 




will never be filled 
and
we will wait 
and 
wait

in that space.

the beauty of truth


the beauty of truth: whether it is bad or good, it is liberating.

but there’s a story behind everything. 
how a picture got on a wall. how a scar got on your face. sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking.
