What life
What spotlight
What confusion of brainwaves
Who has my cigarette
snap!
What day
What song
What elemental atmosphere
What will I make for dinner
snap!
What doldrums
What fashion
What petty obsession with visual arts
Where is my untucked man
snap!
Whose rules
Whose schedules
Whose power to command the masses
Who but I can ignore the hypnosis
snap!
(how can I resist a poetry session)
Bahrain's four hundred-year-old Tree of Life stands in the middle of the island's desert, with no apparent water source, and is considered a "natural wonder" : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_of_Life,_Bahrain
A kid holds a flag of a local party while on his father's shoulders, the photo was taken in Palestine, Ramallah in a protest.
Chinese police state spies are everywhere. This guy was looking for Falungong but he couldnt find any for organ harvesting to sell to rich French men that day.
Life Imitates Art
My cat, Stinky, lies down next to a cat statue in the rock garden and my desert tortoise, Detour, walks past a tortoise statue. (Sept. 24, 2013)

graves in front - in the background is a well - giving life in the desert
there was a time when more was felt than known
but now, entrenched inside my sett,
in light more mundane, thought rattles round my brain:
we live, we die and yet?

Life is full of colours. We can be living in a busy world, and completely neglect the truth meanings of people around us. Is a life without love and meaning colourful?
Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Non andartene docile in quella buona notte,
la vecchiaia dovrebbe ardere e infierire
quando cade il giorno;
infuria, infuria contro il morire della luce.
Benché i saggi infine conoscano che il buio
è giusto,
poiché dalle parole loro non diramò alcun
conforto,
non se ne vanno docili in quella buona notte.
I buoni, che in preda all'ultima onda
splendide proclamano le loro fioche imprese,
avrebbero potuto danzare in una verde baia,
e infuriano, infuriano contro il morire
della luce.
I selvaggi, che il sole a volo presero
e cantarono,
tardi apprendono come lo afflissero
nella sua via,
non se ne vanno docili in quella buona notte.
Gli austeri, vicini a morte, con cieca vista
scorgono
che i ciechi occhi quali meteore potrebbero brillare
ed esser gai
e infuriano, Infuriano contro il morire
della luce.
E tu, padre mio, là sulla triste altura,
condanna, feriscimi ora con le tue fiere
lacrime.
Io prego:
Non andartene docile in quella buona notte.
Infuria, infuria contro il morire
della luce.
Dylan Thomas

Here is the exhibit area from The Life of Paper.
Though you might be tempted to say, "Oh, no, not another penguin," there is a deeper message to this piece than just origami innovation.
These penguins stack. Stackable penguins? You bet. With a hexagonal base and a hexagonal "shelf" at shoulder level, they can stack quite high. For reference, the blue paper representing the water is 9 feet square.
The “Spirit of Life,” also known as the Spencer Trask Memorial, was created by Daniel Chester French (1850-1931) and dedicated June 26, 1915. The monument is part of the wonderful landscape of Congress Park, in downtown Saratoga Springs, New York. Smithsonian Institute Research Information Service (SIRIS) inventory #76004303
