Television
Glimpses
Salvation heirs
and bottled lightning
heated scenes
delusion lichens
the past we gulp
the scented air
the rain as warm
as salted tears.
Hobo sky
the stars hang low
above the locks
the dripping vines
your tangled hair
drowned in the waters
I left you sinking
in Carolina
Water boatman,
drift back in the shadows
stop trying to remember
and backwards row
down, down, down, down
not liquid or solid
rotten sun, full of promise
washed away.

Who I'd like to meet: Toy boat operators on Central Park pond,
operators shifting
their remote control hands.
I stare at the sky,
watching collections pass by:
of shooting stars, masonic garb.
"You'd lost everything you'd lost everything you'd lost everything"
Now you sleep in the corner of my mind.
Toy boat operators
on Central Park pond.
I stare at the sky,
watching collections pass by:
of ties with horses, an eye with no ties,
unfocused lenses, soft pretenses,
and the hymn of the butterfly collectors.
"You'd lost everything you'd lost everything you'd lost everything."
Now you sleep in the corner of my mind. (for Robert M.)
Hi Virginia, trust all is well with you on your side of the Atlantic. I appreciate the flute playing on your page, it is very soothing to me and meditative! best wishes to you and yours!!!
jeez you are looking great Virginia especially for 97! just back from our trip down coast of NSW have a grand roll into new year m'dear xx howie transparentseavoyage.coms4cglobal.org
I've been bussy as always but the Antarctic Matters exhibition project was an extra opportunity to start exploring new fields of intrest. I managed the artistic department of the project and it was as if I had a second full time job. Beeing an artist within the project made it even more complicated. The 'thing' is on the road now and I am able to look at it as a visitor. And I am sort of proud of what was realised.
How are you doing Virginia? Any bright stars around you...

Dear Virginia Tate, It's after Halloween and the busy holidays are approaching. Take a break and drop by to listen to my featured songs. You may find my music to be just the calm you need during this hectic time of the year. I appreciate your friendship and I hope you enjoy the music. I wish you much joy and peace.
