i'd tried for about 2 hours to post things.   about chaos.  about wanting a little chaos  and how this morning went,  providing a little chaos that i realized i might be missing,   having worked to run a tight ship for a few months now,  but  the pics and the words would just suddenly disappear.  it ended with a Big notice on the screen…you are blocked.  Blocked from this site.  ok.

but it's almost dusk and i went down to B to give water.  and there were these.  I'll give them to Jenny tomorrow.   What i am left with tho,  at the end of this day,  is how they feel.

Walking up the Hill,  holding them like this….the Feeling of 5 figs in the palm of my left hand…their weight and weightlessness,  their softness,  roundness,  plumpness,  their Figness.   Their skin,  touching my skin.

    Five oracles. Five senses. 5 fingers (4 + thumb). “weight/weightlessness, softness, roundness, plumpness, their Figness”. I breathed deeply, seeing and reading, not knowing that I had been holding my breath…found myself humming a silly little song ~ “I don’t give a feather or a fig”! powerful feelings in a handful of figs. A hand full of dreams. delicious and delightful ~ sensuous!
