If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern. —William Blake

Tell me, is midlife a dream—or waking from one?
I’d say the dream is to wake again tomorrow.
Yes, that was the interpretation of rupture…wish I was unable to describe those feelings :)
Makes sense.

Thanks for being always open minded and supportive!
Your prompts are fun :)
Dear @hool415.bsky.social
For #promptcombo and #tracks I leave a dialogue between Rilke (he’s in italics) and me.
Such a beautiful pairing!
This week's #promptcombo #moment took me back to a poem I wrote in 1998 and was part of my first collection in 2006 (eek)! Thanks @rfsmith.bsky.social for reminding me, it was nice to revisit it and St Kevin's Arcade back home in Auckland!

Beautiful image
Hullo @rfsmith.bsky.social
and to #promptcombo #moment
Will look for something else too but this is the sort of short write @victoriaspires.bsky.social delightfully calls a poetic ‘trinket’.
Have a great week all!
Lovely!

Lovely!
Thank you, Victoria — appreciate you sitting with it. I try to let the images speak for themselves, so I’m glad one stayed with you.
Congratulations!
Belated Clarity
Once seen, it stays in mind.
How plain it was, yet blind.
In hindsight, it is clear.
'Aha' flash, wisely shown,
Means you ought to have known.
Your blindness underlined.
