Love After Love

"the time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome
and say, sit here, eat.

you will love again the stranger who was yourself
give wine, give bread. give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you.
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.

take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
sit. feast on life."

Derek Walcott

Watermelon.A Small Matter of Miracles

I have observed the power of the watermelon seed. It has the power of drawing from the ground and through itself 200,000 times its own weight. When you can tell me how it takes this material and out of it colors an outside surface beyond the imitation of art, and then forms inside of it a white rind and within that again a red heart, thickly inlaid with black seeds, each one which in turn is capable of drawing through itself 200,000 times its own weight-- when you can explain to me the mystery of a watermelon, you can ask me to explain the mystery of God.
:William Jennings Bryan

Listen.

311. Amber

Brainstorm
take me away from the norm
I got to tell you something
this phenomenon
I had to put it in a song
and it goes like

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
you ought to know what brings me here
you glide through my head blind to fear
and I know why
whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally

You live too far away
your voice rings like a bell anyway
don't give up your independence
unless it feels so right
nothing good comes easily
sometimes you gotta fight

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
launched a thousand ships in my heart, so easy
still it's fine from afar, and you know that
whoa, brainstorm take me away from the norm
whoa, I got to tell you something

The sun will shine.

Groove Theory.Tell Me.

Sending My Love To You. Zhane.

If I could mail my heart
Right to you, I would
I'd pack it up, seal it tight
And I'd send it over night

Every time I hear your voice
And I look into your eyes
Sends a burning sweet sensation
Oh, inside of me

The look in your eyes
Has found me
I am sending

Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
Sending my love

Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
Sending my love

With my heart in your hands
I'm as helpless as a baby
I'm in desperate need of your love
So just send it right away

I've been thinking 'bout you, boy
Because you're so far away
Makes me want to send you all this love
Inside of me

The look in your eyes
Has found me
I am sending

Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss Oh, ho
Sending my love

Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
With a kiss
Sending my love

If I could mail my heart
Right to you, I would
I'd pack it up, seal it tight
And I'd send it over night
