A Dangle

Beltane                  Waxing Dyan Moon

I’ve never wished for melancholy, it always finds me when it will.  I have, however, wished for a descended cloud, not fog, but a stepping off point for paradise, a place to enter the imaginary realm, perhaps withouth need for a return voyage and in its escapist way, its denial of now this wish does not lie far from the darker boundary beyond which melancholy lurks.

These days I’ve had a restless pointlessness, a wandering from project to job to book to t.v.  This is, to continue the melancholy/paradise metaphor, a sort of purgatory, neither deep enough for blackness or high enough for light; it is, instead, a descended cloud that is fog, a barrier between purpose and action, no, more, a barrier between heart and purpose.

Slow, again.  Like molasses.  Also cotton in my ears, dark sunglasses on my eyes.  I hear no evil, speak no  evil, think no evil.  I hear no live, speak no live, think no live.  I dangle, neither here nor there.
