Today is my first OFFICIAL blog post for Be My Mannequin? Pose Store! And thus, I have TWO brand new goodies to present to you!
The first pose is portrayed by Vin Raven-Mysterious, the creator of Be My Mannequin? Pose Store, himself, posing for: I Want To Hold You Close. It is a standing, very versatile and unisex single pose! You can find it at the one and only alternative and dark style event: Necrosis and will be there until June 11th! With your purchase, you get the copy/mod pose and poseball, an unlit flashlight, and a clean knife! The flashlight and knife are not shown in the photo but you can check them out on display (and DEMO this epic, versatile pose) at Necrosis! Bonus, its also part of a FATPACK with its sister pose (Lie Still, Close Your Eyes) which you can get 10% off!
The second pose is portrayed by me, using the brand new sit pose: (I Just) Died In Your Arms. It is an in-store release (previously released for the Dark Wednesdays Event) and you can find it at Be My Mannequin? Pose Store's main store or on marketplace on Second Life! Its a unisex, singles sit pose and comes with a shackles bar that attaches directly to your avatar and is super easy to adjust! You can see it in the picture on my wrists! I am in love with how natural this pose is and any prisoner would definitely know their place while in this pose!

"You can't!" I cried, staring out at the beautiful, illuminated planet that was my home world before turning desperate gaze to my captor. Down there were billions of people just living their lives, unaware of the danger above! The unit I had been a part of had been dispatched in secret as not to terrify our people that he was coming to our world. I tried to fight! We all did but we were ambushed and I was taken alive; brought to The Cosmic Tyrant. That's what they call him.
Everyone knew about this guy: he was ruthless and cared about no living thing except himself. And now he was offended by our home world but no one knew why. He'd be beautiful to me if he wasn't the one threatening to destroy everything I loved and held dear.
"I can't?" came that smooth, venomous voice. His piercing eyes turned upon me as a viscous smile curled at his lips. "You want to try that again, Prince?" Our eyes stared into each others and I knew that there was truly nothing I could do at this point to stop him.
With a dark chuckle, the black obsidian that hovered midair over his hands began to spark, dark pink electricity flickering and expanding all around us!
Now I knew I couldn't hold back the fear that lit my eyes. The rumors always said that all is calm, then you see a flash of pink light and then....gone. In a matter of minutes, my home would be nothing but dust floating through space and if I was l lucky, he'd kill me too.
This was it. This is how the world ends.
Milky Way setting in a "green sea" of airglow. There were also some red airglow stripes lower (visible in this photo). Jupiter and Saturn can be seen on the left side. A striking early perseid is there too (this one left a trail visible for at least 3'). Shot from Mt. Helmos, Peloponnese, Greece, @ alt. 2340 m.

O Great Spirit, whose voice we hear in the winds
and whose breath gives life
to all the world,
hear us.
We are small and weak.
We come to you to find strength and wisdom.
Let us walk in beauty
and make our eyes
ever behold the sunset.
Make our hands respect
the things you have made
and our ears sharp
to hear your voice.
Make us wise
so that we may understand
the things you have taught our relatives.
Let us learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock.
We seek strength,
not to be greater than our brothers and sisters,
but to fight our greatest enemy-ourselves.
Make us always ready to come to you
with clean hands and straight eyes.
So when life fades, as the fading sunset our spirit may come to you
without shame.

The Milky Way rising above the Ward Charcoal Ovens.
The Ward Charcoal Ovens operated from 1876 through 1879, the silver boom years of the Ward mines. The ovens were eventually phased out completely due to depleted ore deposits and a shortage of available timber.
If you ever visit the region, I highly recommend stopping at this small State Historic Park. The history of the ovens and the impact they had on their environment is extremely interesting. There is also a nice hike along the nearby creek, where, during my visit, thousends of wild roses were in full bloom, filling the air with their sweet scent.

I'm amused at the cosmic swirl imprint my boots are leaving.. i wonder if I can find a pair that leave a lil tree imprint :)
Lord of the Lost
Morgana
Fate will echo
Between the worlds
Through the shores of the
Fallen souls
To this land that I served with pride
Visions clear in the
Fading light
And we walk through the shadows of pain
Come and walk with me...
To the end!
All is condemned!
So
Walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet
Will I ascend to her?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
Bodies wilt but the mind's serene...
For a life worthy of
Her grace...
My desire as I depart
Give my piece back to her
Lone heart...
To the end!
All is condemned!
So
Walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet
Will I ascend to her?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
I have to run through
The shadows of hate
To be hers
Again!
To the end!
All is condemned!
So
Walk to the end!
Free from regret!
So
Walk to the end!
All is condemned!
So
Walk to the end!
Free from regret!
Yet
Will I ascend to her?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
Will I meet Morgana soon?
Back in action. Been outta sl doing other things, but here's my latest pic and blog post. Hope you enjoy: tookablogtotheknee.wordpress.com/2014/07/30/cosmic-castaway/
The gigantic granite monoliths of Yosemite Valley appeared humongous against the distant stars of the Milky Way. But in reality, Yosemite Valley is only a tiny spot on earth, and yet the Earth is just a tiny planet compared to its nearest star – the Sun, which is a million times bigger. And last of all, the sun is simply just one of the billions of shining stars in the Milky Way. That really makes us think how small we are compare to the universe.
I MUST´VE DIED AND GONE TO HEAVEN
COS IT WAS A QUARTER PAST ELEVEN
ON A SATURDAY IN 1999
RIGHT ACROSS FROM WHERE I´M STANDING
ON THE DANCE FLOOR SHE WAS LANDING
IT WAS CLEAR THAT SHE WAS FROM ANOTHER TIME
LIKE SOME BABY BARBARELLA
WITH THE STARS AS HER UMBRELLA
SHE ASKED ME IF I´D LIKE TO MAGNETISE
DO I HAVE TO GO STAR-TREKKING
COS IT´S YOU I SHOULD BE CHECKING
SO SHE LASER BEAMED ME WITH HER COSMIC EYES
SHE´S JUST A COSMIC GIRL
FROM ANOTHER GALAXY
MY HEART´S AT ZERO GRAVITY
SHE´S FROM A COSMIC WORLD
PUTTING ME IN ECSTASY
TRANSMITTING ON MY FREQUENCY
SHE´S COSMIC...

Just a hint of what's to come for the upcoming Yayoi Kusama show at the New York Botanical Garden: Cosmic Nature,. The show opens on April 9th and runs through October. I was just fortunate enough to see part of the very early setup. Can't wait! New York Botanical Garden, The Bronx, NYC -- March 30, 2021
How wonderful would it be to spend a night gazing up at the stars and sitting by a waterfall not frequented by many. Driving through Yosemite is always rewarding, all you have to do is stop and explore, magnificent scenes emerge by themselves. My initial drive through this area helped me discover this scene but the time was not correct so I could only visualize this galactic alignment through the photopills app. I made another long drive just before this seasonal fall dries up as escaype predicted clear skies in the region. To get the right light, I shot the foreground after sunset and tracked MilkyWay from the higher ground within a short span. All things have to work just right .
