Mon 11/01/2021 Hello again. How are we welcoming this year in? I know I haven’t found my flow, or maybe I have found flows, but no sure steady flow. It isn’t always clear what ought to be shared, and with whom, but there is always a tune (an underlying hum at very least), demanding wordsContinue reading “Styx and Hubris”

Our Climate: A Coalescing Eclipse Pattern — Plumwood Mountain
Rarely have I enjoyed such daunting walls of text so thoroughly. This is flowing, and difficult to pull quotes from, but know… “This is no longer the world of the painter Titian or even Arthur Rimbaud with its nano-technical prowess and attendant attempts at opening a possible shift into other galactic dimensions.” Ooooooohhhhhhhh… Will AlexanderContinue reading “Our Climate: A Coalescing Eclipse Pattern — Plumwood Mountain”

O Come, All Ye Faithful! The NationalContinue reading “Christmas Carols: Carol Anne Duffy and more…”
Before Christmas
Wednesday 16/12/2020 Think snowberry/acorn-green/nut-brown. Pin up holly-red and hawthorn crowns threaded with shedded wool all round, to soften the song the mistle thrush throws. Say goodbye to waking in the night to deathwatch knocks turning time back, and waterlogging fallen trunks and branches creaking as they crack. Light a candle, clove anContinue reading “Before Christmas”
R.S. Thomas, THIS, and A Lasting Gift
12/12/2020 I haven’t been writing (much), but rewording. My college art tutor (Kevin) said “It’s (all) well and good, you having ideas, but you’ll have to produce some work at some point.” There are reasons, such as…I shouldn’t say, and other reasons to let the pen dry, and the paint turn (into) tin-wrapped brick; andContinue reading “R.S.
