I died for beauty, but was scarce

Adjusted in the tomb,

When one who died for truth was lain

In an adjoining room.

 

He questioned softly why I failed?

"For beauty," I replied.

"And I for truth - the two are one;

We brethren are," he said.

 

And so, as kinsmen met a-night,

We talked between the rooms,

Until the moss had reached our lips,

And covered up our names.

Just tea for two and two for tea,

Just me for you

And you for me ...

I like these pastal colours from the baltic sea.every morning is different.its nice to spent time here

My first love

The man I will always be in love with

Letting him go 10 years ago was the hardest thing I have ever done

Having him as a father taught me what to expect from a man...

Everything he gave me

I have never settled for less

They say I am like him, strong but silent

And it makes me proud

 

To all the Fathers out there....

You are Incredible!

Just keep doing what your heart says is right

 

What I wouldn't give to dance with my father again......

Ein Seil liegt lose da

akkurat

liebevoll

in ein Muster geschlungen

präsentiert es sich

das Seil

 

Anfang und Ende

sind eins

in einen Kreis gelegt

wie auch unser Leben

sich im Kreise bewegt

scheinbar unbeweglich

das Seil

 

Stummer Zeuge

von Minuten

von Stunden

des Fixierens

des Angebundenseins

des Loslösens

nicht das Seil tut dies

deine Hand, mein Liebster

lässt das Seil erst Macht gewinnen

 

Was lässt mich stehen und harren

hören, wie das Seil

durch deine Hände gleitet

nur erahnend

geschnürt werde ich sein

unbeweglich

mein Körper

nur meine Sinne wandernd durch den Raum

ein Seil

warum das Seil so köstlich sein soll

mir Erlösung bringen wird

du weißt es, ziehst fester

noch fester

 

Akkurat wie zu Beginn soll es sein

meine Haut quillt hervor

lässt rote Spuren bloß erhaschen

ein Stich fährt durch meinen Bauch

fester ziehst du, fester

spürst meine Bedrängnis

mein Rucken

mein Mich-Wehren

fester das Seil

 

Mit einem Ruck hebst du mich hoch

ein Päckchen, geschnürt ich bin

deine Hände berühren zärtlich

meine Haut

du lässt mich sanft zu Boden gleiten

ein violettes Tuch liegt bereit

ein Knopf nach dem andern du entwirrst

mich streichelnd und liebkosend

zurückführst

zum Ende des Anfangs

das Seil.

 

ich habe dich sehr lieb und ich bin stolz und dankbar dein Eigentum zu sein . wir gegen den rest der Welt . deine Zofe

Three Alaska railroad GP's prepare to load out the rest of the ARMS barge on a typical Whittier day. Cold, wet, and foggy pretty much sums up this all season port with the original military era housing standing in the background. One of the neat things about the Whittier switch stands is that they all are some how lit at the same time in this shot and no its not photoshopped. After loading is complete these three Gp's will depart under the cover of darkness for Anchorage.

dans son état naturel, trouvé tel quel, rien n'a été bougé. ..Les plaisirs de la découverte en urbex !

It was just a very ordinary walk in the same Helsinki suburb surroundings, still with patches of ice here and there, but sun already was shining warmer and friendlier than a couple of weeks ago. And then behind a turn of the path opened a view over a little bay, and sunlight fell on the tops of last year dropworts in so marvelous angle that all the scene was flooded with light... I deliberately let the flare come into the photo, because it reveals the feeling from that moment like fairies would be dancing in the branches and chasing the winter away. :-)

World ME Awareness Day

 

made for the many of us here who live with ME

ME ( Myalgic Encephalomyelitis),

also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, CFS for shot.

 

For anyone lucky enough to not know, ME is an illness connected to immune system deregulation, inflammation and energy production. It has a multitude of shifting symptoms, the main one being chronic fatigue: tiredness that isn't refreshed by sleep.

Time to go and get our kicks

Dropping out and getting in the mix now

Here in the backroom, nothing to do

We're not bored, we're just sick of you, yeah

Yeah, sick of you

 

Break down, take down, now it's on

Sold out, blow out, Donkey Kong

Well, no! Hell, no! What you gonna do

When they keep coming for you

 

See the shadows marching on

Yesterday's dreams are dead and gone

Dead and gone

Hear the cheering up above

Down below is push and shove

Yeah push and shove

 

Break down, take down, now it's on

Sold out, blow out, Donkey Kong

Well, no! Hell, no! What you gonna do

When they keep coming for you

 

Bet some, get some, knock you down

Low-down, show down, kiss that ground

Well, no! Hell, no! What you gonna do

Lights out, permanent snooze, they'll be coming for you

 

What's up, fuck you up

Break down, take down, now it's on

Sold out, blow out, Donkey Kong

Well, no! Hell, no! What you gonna do

They just keep coming for you

 

Bet some, get some, knock you down

Low-down, show down, kiss that ground

Well, no! Hell, no! What you gonna do

Lights out, permanent snooze, they'll be coming for you

 

They'll be coming for you

They'll be coming for you

 

I will present this work to the dealer suggesting him to print it VERY LARGE

Must be honest, the frequent lack of trains got the better of me and I resorted to making a photoshop composite from photos taken on completely different days, different light etc. Perhaps the most obvious giveaway is that the background is quite sharp, the train somewhat less so!

Where is the panorama?

Wo bleibt das Panorama?

"Crazy Tuesday Theme" - "Picture with added text"

I am sorry I answer this late, but I got to my computer just now.

Here is my short text :)

The perfect location and setting for that romantic meal for two at the water's edge.The last rays of the sun shimmer and glisten on the water.The occasional boat sedately going about it's business.The perfect end to the day.
