Friday's Lyrical Imagery
Matchbox Twenty - Bright Lights
"She got out of town
On a railway New York bound"
The sea speaks, regurgitates her
past, the curve of an oaken spar,
bitten by sea-ants, weathering
like the tongue of a boot, recklessly
flung by waves, beating seaweed
on a sandlocked beach, where the sun
pours contempt, from its barrels of heat.
Caulking those voices, screaming from
the bowels of the sea, to be heard
from their sargasso bed; not browning
with almond leaves after five hundred
years, mocking the tides as she speaks.
A diver skims the blue, paddling
with dolphin ease. A shark measures
his rhythm then departs. Whirlpools,
opaque metacarpals of the deep,
swirl, enveloping his dark feet.
Five hundred years, flesh grinding flesh
in its mill, rooted to bowels
alive in Earth, chewing their bits
spat from the top of mountaintops.
Drizzling their ash on valleys green
with a feverish melody,
strummed by wind and rain on box
guitars from the hills, when evenings
call for the brown bark acajou,
chiselled to shape the Cibonae's
hermetic shape.
Love is the fever, burnishing
the wood: Heaven is a gap through
the teeth of leaves. When the wind blows,
the curve of a woman, smoothen
by riverstones, excites a brave.
Her body's musk, like corn wine,
soothes the swelling around his lips.
Five hundred years, buried in shale;
horse dung, fossilized. The carrion
of an age nurses the navel
of vines, where the iguana breeds.
Great names, the verdigris of cities,
are buried here: Tolum; Tikal;
Palenque; Cozumel; Mayapan.
Wrapped in their jaguar shields, star shells,
their rulers rest, waiting their "tzab"
to dawn, bring resurrection...

Malayan Tiger Cub
Link to The Cincinnati Zoo's Website..............
One of six living subspecies of tiger, the Malayan tiger wears the characteristic striping pattern of black stripes on orange and white that provides excellent camouflage in the forest. Using its quiet stalking ability, a tiger will ambush large prey, often pouncing on it from the rear. Other than females with their young, tigers are solitary and come together only to mate. Each tiger defends its own territory from others of the same gender. Territories must be large to provide enough prey for a tiger to eat. As more and more forests disappear, tigers struggle to maintain a territory with sufficient prey.
A tiger may travel up to 20 miles a night in search of prey.
Unlike most cats, tigers seem to enjoy swimming and soaking in water.
A tiger’s roar can be heard up to two miles away.
One out of every 10,000 tigers will lack the orange coloring. These white tigers are not albinos; they simply express a recessive gene.

I'm so sorry that I ended up missing so many of your photos today. I had planned on being here but a number of things came up and so I couldn't do it. I'll try to catch up with you all sometime tomorrow. I really wanted to post something cute tonight to give me a smile. I hope this little guy makes you smile too. Good Night everyone and have Sweet Dreams. Hugs!

Inside a clean room in Building 1555 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, technicians install the second half of the Northrop Grumman Pegasus XL payload fairing around NASA's Ionospheric Connection Explorer (ICON) on Aug. 22, 2018. ICON is being prepared for its launch on the Pegasus XL rocket, which is attached beneath the company's L-1011 Stargazer aircraft. Launch is scheduled for Oct 26, from the Skid Strip at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. ICON will study the frontier of space - the dynamic zone high in Earth's atmosphere where terrestrial weather from below meets space weather above. The explorer will help determine the physics of Earth's space environment and pave the way for mitigating its effects on our technology, communications systems and society.

The roses in our gardens are in overdrive at the moment. With way more than 100 bushes they are everywhere! This is a good thing for our garden party today. I have loads to do to get ready for it so I won't have much Flickr time until after the festivities.

Enjoy your Sunday!
