Yes one dyptych.... straddles the 2 days

The device what seriously fits all economies.... unless the reader knows different. This really hot day... so hot it was essential the shade was my close companion... this hot day was full of background melting images but this beautiful voice and owner of that voice melted my heart. Apparently a canary, I thought she was finchlike... alone at the other end of a large shopfloor in a big cage on a hot day. Cool enough; plenty of food stuffs... no predators but alone and without her freedom! Advised by one of the staff that she is "female and females don't normally sing". I imagine she has come to sing because it wins attention from the nearest creatures that she sees to her own species... .shop visitors... humans.

 

The image: Wikipedia tells us... "The Ancient of Days is a design by William Blake, originally published as the frontispiece to a 1794 work, Europe a Prophecy. It shows Urizen crouching in a circular design with a cloud-like background. His outstretched hand holds a compass over the darker void below. As noted in Gilchrist's Life of William Blake, the design was "a singular favourite with Blake and as one it was always a happiness to him to copy."[1] As such there are many versions of the work extant, including one completed for Frederick Tatham only weeks before Blake's death."
