          SUMMER: 15 Rahmat (8 July)          

Think cool !

Weather where I am: 85º.
Weather in Aurora, Colorado: 64º.
Weather in Stuttgart, Germany: 72º (perfect).

Nothing much accomplished. Watch Germany defeat Portugal 3-1.

This is a sketch from last night and comments about the process of editing:

Zmitri at dawn

The third moon arose and made love with the coming of dawn.
You whispered through waters,
cupped life in your hands,
and blessed their communion.

Cool tendrils of indigo sped towards horizons
to the far side of night;
you stood there, stiff as a penis,
and spewed forth the promise of clouds.

The nightsky begged succor; you promised it rest
until vespers invoked its return.
And the moon reached it's zenith and gathered the clouds,
while you, bade farewell to the dawn. 163.233]

Compare with an earlier version:

The third moon arose and made love with the dawn.
You whispered through waters,
cupped life in your hands,
and blessed their communion with spawn.

Cool tendrils of indigo sped towards the shroud
of the far side of night,
while you stood, stiff as a penis,
and spewed forth the promise of clouds.

The nightsky begged succor; you promised it rest
till vespers called it back from its yawn.
The moon reached it's zenith and gathered the clouds,
and you, Zmitri, bade farewell to the dawn.

Or almost-original notes sketched the evening of 7/7:

The third moon arose and made love to the lingering dawn.
You strode through the waters,
dippped some with your hands,
and blessed their reunion.

The tendrils of indigo sped towards horizons,
the far side of night,
and you stood there, stiff as a penis,
spewing forth the promise of clouds.

The night begged forgiveness;
you promised it time for a rest,
you promised it dawn.

And the moon reached the zenith and gathered the clouds,
while you, Zmitri, bade farewell to the dawn.

IMAGES

From the Oread, looking out the window:

Reflections of lights; birds in flight; a crowd of clouds greying the sky; green grass, withered grass; the quiet inside; the breeze outside; cars passing; the gurgle in the pot, no coffee; the yellow fire plug; (at a distance no bugs).
