this most recent need to look for the godthing took me back to the Magic Diaries Cloth,  to hang it again so i could ReSee some things.  in doing that,  cloth that had been pinned in that space got moved around the house.  cloths that i'd become so accustomed to seeing there,  i no longer Saw.

this morning,  i DID See.   The dark is a piece from Jude some time ago.  it is porous and strong weave.  it has been so beautiful to me that i could never imagine adding anything to it.  it simply is what it is,  there on a tea dyed piece of again, silk noile.  

i can leave all the Questions for now.  Let this be the godthing.  As Is.  this is good.

    Ah.. I can remember a long night of revelations in a chemically enhanced hyper awareness of life, the universe and everything 40 years ago… trying to draw every detail of the journey and on waking the next day discovering just a few tiny marks in the corner of the page…

    as Emily Dickinson said
    Tell all the truth but tell it slant,
    Success in circuit lies,
    Too bright for our infirm delight
    The truth’s superb surprise;
    As lightning to the children eased
    With explanation kind,
    The truth must dazzle gradually
    Or every man be blind.

    OK Typepad is being ornery this morning so this may well come up 3 times
    Tell all the truth
    Tell all the truth but tell it slant,
    Success in circuit lies,
    Too bright for our infirm delight
    The truth’s superb surprise;
    As lightning to the children eased

    Or every man be blind.

    that’s why we need artists to bring those things just glimpsed from the corner of the eye up out of the deep dreaming into this reality to hold in our hands and give to each other
