"The glacier knocks in the cupboard, The desert sighs in the bed, And the crack in the teacup opens A lane to the land of the dead."

What I Did On My Eerie Vacation








This year I spent Halloween further afield, seeking signs and wonders in the mysterious Midwest. Despite being a weakling who can't travel more than a few blocks without becoming deathly ill, and having to wheeze my pitiful way around the buckeye state, I was not disappointed.

(Fair warning, the next few posts will be devoted to posting vacation pics, but they are eerie ones, at least.)

Dreaming in the real

Our first order of business for October will be fudging just a wee bit by posting this video snippet from the very end of September, as I watched the butterflies migrate down union street in the late afternoon.


The next order of business is to virtually drift through other lands with faraway friends, putting my own spin on dreaming in the real.  
Haunted Echoes/ Secret of the light, by the Mothwing Collective
Unheard music, Mothwing style
Bright pause at the monastery gates, inspired by seeing my compatriot's Zettelkasten entry on my metaphysical maunderings regarding my time living near a Poor Clare Monastery
If you are looking for a sign, here it is. 
When Venus whispers into the ear of the sun.
The lovely thing about art is that it can be like dreaming out loud.
