4-D
Style & Substance
The
taste of assorted crackers, sorting pastel papers, a long soaking in
a warm shower, chopping dark eggplant, orange matchsticks of
sweet potato, the first very fat Robin, the gray cat's sleek
fur, a surrounding of quilts & pillows, a first kiss we remember
so well. If I don't go slow & deep enough into
textures, life feels listless, black'n'white, bleak, useless, dead.
'Can't do that other bit anymore. It nearly killed all need, all
desire. Nearly made this body evaporate. Don't let's
go back there again. The sky & animals like this quiet. Let's leave
them alone & sing!
