I'm home [Jul. 11th, 2009|07:56 am]

pursuing dreams superficially fed
the light exposed a path mislead
drawn to journey
seeing the strokes of a painted life
resolving tales of perceptual strife
fending blows of an emotional knife
coming to ground
spooning sheltered in my comfy bed
making love inside my head

none are responsible
beyond their take
the gates remain open
in the shadows wake

ever more projects [Jun. 19th, 2009|01:51 pm]
this is the "front" (as in, closest to the street) entry it was originally two narrow double doors you had to be a anorexic 16 yo to get through with a bag of groceries,while i loved the doors,(they are cached for some future project) they were heavy with old lead paint and it made sense in a number of respects to replace them,..


the inside trim work

the dark wood is the original cherry

tides behind membranes [Jun. 16th, 2009|06:57 pm]




Butterfly kisses
Phoenix fire
the dragon below the surface
called forth by desire

in eternity's shadow
the sun but a spark
and every resolute purpose
ultimately but a lark

held in amatory hands
the sparkle pulses true
and the crux of every question
is decoded to a view

thunder resounding
felicity in the promise
beatitude in shadowed visage

wet taste of chaos
distilled passion
running along my ribs

perturbation of the vision
truth rendered disarray
making flashes

Domains [Mar. 28th, 2009|11:18 pm]
“What do I do?” she asked as we sat facing each other.

“Nothing, just relax, this isn't a task or test” I replied, I held her head in my hands, fingers along her jawline, my thumbs caressing her closed eyes and cheeks, I could feel the nervousness melt away as the familiar touch softly coaxed her into a mellow state,.. then ,...I just stepped across, her mind was cluttered as most normal peoples are, but having done this before I knew what to look at there wasn't a lot of surprising things since we had known each other for a while, and I had tasted her mind often as we made love, since that's when many people broadcast the fullest,...

Not everyone, but even those who think they are private announce themselves, often in other ways, like the quiet ones,odd misfits that don't mingle, well, not all of them, many are drowning in their own insecurities, screaming in silent variegated frequencies to be noticed, pleading to be drawn from the mire that makes them reclusive, to those that see, they are as transparent as the overly gregarious that try to hide their vulnerability with noise and bravado,... There is a population that connects on a conscious level, often using the ability to manipulate and control, pulling the strings to make the unwary dance to their whim, sometimes maliciously but often not, .. Then there are those like myself who prefer to just watch, to stand on the sidelines and see the flux of humanity like trains that come and go in the hub of any big city,... It's not a case of not fitting in, it's more being purely a level of comfort with ones locus,whether it's chosen or not.

She could sense me acting the tourist within her thoughts, but then I tend to make my presence obvious in these situations bumping things that trigger the awareness of my being there,.. Tinted with a sense of wonder, she softy murmured, “You're in my head.”, and I felt her smile under my hands,. I was pleased that she was flowing in a positive way, as I figured she would when I proposed the game, wandering in someones head is pretty natural, ...Close your eyes and survey the inner realm of that space you think of as your consciousness and you will understand pretty much what it's like being in another's space, it's akin to walking into a unknown house, the arrangement is unfamiliar, but the fixtures are nothing that you can't understand, but of course most people avoid the unknown.

I surveyed in a quick pass her physical awareness, the warm presence of my hands and the mild thrilling of the feel of my knee along her thigh, I touched that, and smiling again, I felt her shift as she pressed against that connection,... I could feel the heat of the bruise where she had clocked herself with the cupboard door, and felt a momentary sympathetic wince,... I refrained from delving too deep, this was meant to be a pleasant game and I intended not to flush out any shadows that hid things that could trigger defensive reactions, it would be counter to my purpose.

She drew a deep breath and I knew what she was about to say,.. “I can't find you,... let me in?”,... She learned fast, it's not unusual to be able to cross abodes,.... once the process has been revealed, just like swimming, it clicks, then simply becomes a matter of refinement, ...Of course even with the inherent ability some never learn to swim.

“Let me in,..” there was the implied assertion that I was keeping her out that colored the words, and it was true, I shield very well, for good reason, but this was about trust,.. so I whispered, “Be careful “, and gave way to her probe,... Suddenly I was filled with her panic, all in a heartbeat she flailed and jerked away from my touch, and connection,... As I watched her compose herself her eyes wide and dilated, she looked at me and said,” You are all afire!” and she wrapped her arms around herself and shivered, as if cold,.. Shaking my head I said “No, that's just pain,... managed pain”,... I should have known being the sensitive she was that the hurt would be the first thing she connected with, and her reaction was understandable from that standpoint.

I put my hands out to her and she climbed into my embrace, with her face against my chest she said under her breath, “so much pain, I could feel it!...” looking up into my eyes she asked “How do yo bear it?”,.. With a chuckle I replied, “ I don't have much choice, now do I, it's been part of my life,... My whole life,... It's normal for me,.. Like anything, you learn it's ways or it consumes you.” ,...Putting her head against me as if listening to my heart, she shivered again and clung to me a bit harder,..I don't like it!” she stated in a little girl voice,... That set me to chuckling, and I tipped her face up and kissed her, “Nothing for it babe,.. let's go to bed, I think this day is a wash”,.. She was quiet for a moment then tangling her fingers in the wisps of my chest she pulled and said, “Promise we can do this again”,.. with a laugh I said,” Such a glutton for punishment!” and gathering her up I carried her into the bedroom.

Tomorrow would be another day,..tonight I would assuage the rigors of time in the sweet wash of her sensuality.

welcome to my la-bor-atory,... [Mar. 20th, 2009|09:57 pm]

Mad scientist?
naw just a bit ticked off,..;)

one of my isometric design sketches
Photobucket

not very refined, this one is a couple generations later than the one i built the prototype from,so has some improvements i've devised the drawings change often and they tend to get scribbled and spilled upon, typical evil lab stuff,.. plus when you have to be your own henchman the work tends to go slow,..i usually use recycled and found parts to build the test gear,..as well as the finished items ultimately,..


the prototype,...
Photobucket

It's not fully constructed yet. this is the stage where i was working out the details of amperage draw and the balance of electrolyte in the water, ...oh i haven't told you what this whole little enterprise is,... it's referred to as a hydrogen generator, but really it's a water disassembler,... it separates the oxygen and hydrogen,... by magic,... well let's just call it that, because if you understand what electrolysis is you already know what's going on and if not,... well it's magic, the full explanation is pretty involved and tends to bury the whole point,.. and I don't really want to get into the whole ions and protons and their whole bonding process,.. I mean some things are their own private matters,.. right?,.. right,..

Now where was I,.. oh yeah,.. this is one of my little energy projects with a multitude of potential uses but primarily it for two main uses, one to improve the fuel mileage on my truck and the other is for a unit called a “micro-torch” for precision jewelery work both of which I'll probably belabor you with as they develop, the bottom line here is one of the reasons I'm mad,.. well ticked , .. I'm pretty tired of hearing the whole oil shortage thing when in reality, everything that burns is hydrogen, and yeah theres lots of noise around it not being feasible yet,..which is so much bullshit,... it's all about money and not much else,...but anyway, I've been into self sustaining systems since I was able to read, and watch my grandfather heat the milk room with his own homemade hooch, (yeah, he also drank the stuff,...), there is no shortage of fuel, one just needs the wits to make it available,.. this is one of my processes,..:)

huh,... [Mar. 16th, 2009|12:50 am]
Tonight,.. today? Anyway,.. while blundering around under the influence of too much loud guitar and too many margaritas (wait, is there such a thing?) I almost bit my tongue when I had the thought that I was being intolerant of those who were intolerant, and I couldn't make up my mind if that was irony or hypocrisy or both,.. then I managed to fall up three flights of stairs,,, I think sleep may sort this out,.. maybe,..o.o

Some like it stiff and hard,... [Mar. 15th, 2009|02:20 pm]
I am often called “negative”,... mostly by people who I disagree with or question, or even that I may simply espouse ideas that are at odds with their beliefs,... of course it's easy to take my view on things and see them that way because I look at what's right and wrong in a picture or what could potentially improve it.

While I can, and do appreciate something in it's flawed state, my “inner perfectionist' wants to shine the light on the potential, that could be,...of course this is purely my viewpoint, since most things are relative,... I like to look at all the angles,and will tear apart my own thinking as often as I look under the covers of others.

I'm forever open to change, even chaotic change,....it's something I find scares people, and honestly I can understand it, I just rebel against becoming so “set” in my ways that only one viewpoint is allowed.

Many philosophically embrace “growth” , but generally this means following along the blinder constrained path that is comfortable to them, typically it's walled in by structural concepts or preconceived ideas that form the supposed foundation and cornerstones of their personal image,.. their “sanctuary” as such,... most often in the light of deliberation or intimation these walls can become threatened so the defense response isn't a surprise.

In a general sense those who exclude negativity from their lives live in a tunnel reality, it feels safe to cloister oneself into a realm where those around you agree and support and nothing challenges the way you want things to be,... Sadly not many have the resources to pull this off completely, but it appears manageable when there are places to hang the blame for these divergences, and blame is freely used to veil alternative concepts.

The inconvenient and unsavored becomes easily ignored,...I much prefer to see the world in all it's manifest intricacies and try to maintain an open heart and mind in my dealings with the total, this requires seeing all aspects and holding none before another,until all aspects are weighed and a measure of what is and isn't part of any form of vested interest that may be lingering in my desires around the matter.

I'm drawn to people who allude to an open mind, this is the place where real thinkers reside, because even an ugly truth can be illuminating,..it feeds creative energy and enables one to ride the waves of the real world, alas it is a trendy/popular posture , a costume to walk amongst the other actors of the world, the guise that is easily blown askew, the risk to become too comfortable in a refuge of strongbox allusions is to exclude much of the random things of whimsy.

Fear and confusion is something any thinking entity strives to keep distant, I believe confronting and dispelling the sources of these conditions is far preferable to closing a portcullis barring that which may contain these bugbear faces of life, to use such avoidance can well turn a sanctuary into a prison.

Though once I learn it's not welcome, I hold my opinion back often,... I have never shunned someone because they disagree with me, and will show them the same courtesy I would express for a stranger, it doesn't mean I mask anything, when confronted, I deal as always,... I just avoid stepping into the path that is likely to invoke confrontation, most often those who see me as unsavory make an effort to “eschew the negative” and give me a wide berth,... everything balances.
