Watercolor, 27 X 38 CM

I am a frayed and nibbled survivor in a fallen world, and I am getting along.
I am aging and eaten and have done my share of eating too.
I am not washed and beautiful, in control of a shining world in which everything fits, but instead am wondering awed about on a splintered wreck I’ve come to care for, whose gnawed trees breathe a delicate air, whose bloodied and scarred creatures are my dearest companions, and whose beauty bats and shines not in its imperfections but overwhelmingly in spite of them…

Bones & Lace

Bones,
An ending.
Fading, transforming in memory.
The essence revealed,
And soon, only a few pure fragments remain.
At last, this energy sublimates, to be breathed
Into new things.

Lace,
A sea of processes.
Intricate, delicate, beautiful patterns,
Blossoming into a thousand million moments,
On one thread.
Spinning stories and songs
With one breath.

I think this is appropriate for the New Year.
