ok.  curtains back up after i'd taken them down to wash a week or so ago.  and the first pic,  that is the place where the curtain just dissolved in the wash.  so i went through all the possibilities today.  for Whatever Reason,  many curtains like these have shown up at the Thrift Shop.  i have Some.

but none were either the right size OR if they were the right size,  they were….WHITE.   so…TEA DYE.  hung out on the clothes line for the Goats to sniff and …yes.  good.  so tonight, it's like maybe a ferret would want.  closed in.  cozy.  ok.

and all the while, This.  What i really needed, more than anything.   it's just how it IS.  there are days when a Cloth says nothing.  when it   just is there, pinned,  quiet.   but then there are days when the Cloth hummms and i either listen or i don't.  Today,  i listened.  i think this is how it wants to be.

    Came here this morning, sat, tea mug in hand, looked and a word was whispered- horizon. Yes, of course, where earth and sky meet and I realized that this may be the first cloth of yours that is horizontal. Seems to me all of your others have been vertical. So I thought about this and it fits, this meeting of earth and sky. The sand cranes traverse the spaces and so do we as we look, listen, watch, think, wonder and come to an ever evolving understanding of what it means to live among the winged beings and our tiny place in it all…

    There is something in when you say ‘put my own hose in order’ that feels so encompassing, so metaphoratical to me. I like that thought.
