everything condensed makes more exponentially


it is this which makes the valley in its darkness imagine itself. glass has replaced walls with walls made of glass (or the ontology of an object replaces the object’s own assertion “I am here”). transparency is thus seen as the glaze which perception gives to avoid boredom (its own, en occurrence). peace in the mind is not the same as peace in the world. still though the valley extends, and what is beautiful, becoming adjectival, may be applied to a house. or more foreign thoughts more awake in travel. equatorial hot, cactus garden in the airport at singapore, fat unshaven men smoke ash onto thorns. learning to like Nabokov is not the same as liking Bellow instantly. running every day into the heat tempered by the wind, up the hills and down the hills and up towards the town. when the cars pass they pass me and themselves. notes are not fragmentary because influenced by the postmodern reappraisal of the fragment. if one could love in fragments then that would change the emotional notion of assemblage. drawings download into what shaded beauty is, and remembers, and discussions of “appropriateness”, before the imminence of insertion, dissolve (don’t matter) disperse. “prettiness”, in a poetic context, desires reappraisal. coffee is beautiful. the hand glossing the delicate gauze of the space of tender breath where brushing the thigh it rises to assume its gentle clasp and takes to the hips like a knowing grip more gentle than any firmness could ever be. and then in this feathering on the known and darkest skin the hand knows what its desire makes and also what it masks: a difference of one letter. though i said i wouldn’t, i went (to the city and sat by the evening river). threat of rain in the fig trees. the new gallery has honey yellow-panes to glow. cars go by (and “bye”) with white for towards and red for away. fiction makes up for all the things you can’t do. missing a thing is like missing the air around it: what touches it. love can also be followed by the term “etcetera”. space discovered under the dress, shimmering in jade greenness of rocks, Prometheus bound up again and nakedness the reverse (of this), though the lips will never descend onto the awaited sensation which is just an approximation (as emotion dreams to be). and so what the sun leaves when it retires from the valley is like what my mind leaves when it retires from sleep.

Can one not love in fragments? I think this is a very interesting way to look at love and memory/ feelings... where are you? sounds nice along with the strange and disturbing aspects we see more closely when we have the time to observe.

dear susana, i entirely agree, and yet isn't the prospect of this fragmentary love frightening? i would sometimes love to write and love in a continuum. i'm in the mountains on the east coast of australia, and there is such silence here that I find it hard to produce words. each of these is actually a little difficult! that's why this blog is itself quite silent now. the city where i usually live, being already full, allows me to fill it more without staining its diverse colours. here the colours hold their unities. why i could never be a nature poet! all is already silent enough, and sufficiently aware of its own indifference. whereas the city feigns interest in everything! and this cold urban mask's a decent surface for the pen...

Remembered the first time I played the game and bought Lineage 2 gold , it is about two years. Since the first day I bought Lineage gold , we should know that the day will come sooner or later. And I will not leave my Lineage money . My friends forever, even though I will leave you one day, I will remember you forever. At that time, I was a naive; I must used money to have Lineage 2 money , as that I would not depend on myself. But I was not regret to buy it. It is just a way bring me to the success.
