"The love of nature is a passion for those in whom it once lodges. It can never be quenched. It cannot change. It is a furious, burning, physical greed, as well as a state of mystical exaltation. It will have its own."
Mary Webb
Sometimes the simple beauty of flowers makes me wish everyone could experience the view through a macro lens.
One of my artworks for the exhibition TIME WARPS at Kondor Art Garden.
Thanks to my partner Eli Medier for his poem:
"Run
before the cold reaches you
and freezes your thoughts
Under a crescent moon
and a strange lonely star
Three degrees
and even less in the wind
without defenses
Run
escape the spell
of the night
that infernal color
It is a purple
or a blue
they play dead"

Le premier des 7 pêchés capitaux...
Mon précieux... Ma passion.. Il est à moi et personne n'y touchera...
***************
The first of the 7 deadly sins ...
My precious ... My passion .. It is mine and no one will touch it ...
War has rules, it's never cute, it's not a sports match we can watch on tele and root for our favourite team, it's more complex than that, there are variables and people involved, innocents thrust into a game of bombs (and finances) lead by people who will never bat an eyelash at the ringing of shells and the zip of each bag....
As a soldier of this universe I feel compelled to stand for justice. I also know that just following orders is never an excuse for perpetuating the system of violence.
Oftentimes when the Press is muzzled, (don't even get me started on intergalactic communciations systems right now) we are blinded to the 'full story'. However, greed and oppression never sit well will me so I'm compelled to be somewhat emotionally invested with the underdog... plus I really, really despise that other guy.
Lets remember to stay in touch, tell your story.

It would be very greedy if I ate all of these myself. Could be for gluttony if I ate them all at once as well.

something made me feel safe. Was it him?
Or was it me feeling more in control now that I could see his face?
His face his eyes ... his whisper... why was i calm?
Ultimately, America's answer to the intolerant man is diversity.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Wrote this a while ago.
Is Covid over?
Mr. Turner was tired, the social isolation made him a little mad.
Mr. Turner went to the fountain,
and smoked some old stale herbs.
It was customary in his days.
He was advanced in the art of philosophy, he could see the future, and the medical benefits of it.
He thought about the Ship's fever, that wiped out a couple of his friends.
He thought about dispensaries,
existence and painting.
Flashes of inflamed thoughts ran through his mind,
the roaches that crouched right before His eyes, but it was a thought, with an affirmation that they have been here, long before us.
He thought of God, and asked:
Is this a punishment bestowed upon us, my Lord?
And the King of Kings gentile touched His head, and just like that, a movie rolled into his brains.
Destruction, pollution, fire, uncontrolled pain.
Greed,
He wasn't so good in Economy
just like me, but the past had shown that the struggle for power comes from East and West, and he felt cold as the rats crawling beneath His eyes.
Just a thought, they have been here before us.
And he kept on thinking about all this cotidien thoughts and
Vowed
If life ever comes back to normal, He promised, He would never waist anyone's time, making them read things that are so banal, thoughtless, imoral.
And He thought about Love, and the falling, of the viruses
and poetry. Life is a thought, rather fast and or sad and cruel,
He prayed for the front liner's, and asked God for an easy passage and acceptance for the ones going up to Heaven.
He cried like rain in the sky and He painted things, waiting for it all to roll by.
And he lived in a bubble, immersed on Hi's overactive brains,
painting things like sea, water, boats, half thorn bodies, and skies.
Mr. Turner was a good guy.
Thank God that I don't smoke.

GREED: Greed is called the excessive desire of a person to have wealth and goods.
CODICIA: Se denomina codicia el afán desmedido de una persona por tener riquezas y bienes.
A remarkably brutal fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. But, then, greed is a most brutal form of behaviour. Leica M Mono.
"I like to think that my arrogance, impetuosity, impatience, selfishness and greed are the qualities that make me the lovable chap I am."

Not to be a dooms sayer, but I wonder how many of us who post this will find our accounts eliminated over the weekend. Jyst call me Squished Pickle
The reason I'm Bitter
No account is safe.......
I had my only flicker pro account deleted because of content, though they were never clear as to what content was offensive, all my picks on that account were safe?...
this was during the first weeks of Smugs takeover.

Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2011.
..Even the sky suffocates here in this city.
..A city, that grows higher and higher everyday, with the piling mass of hatred, greed and vengeance.
Captured from the construction site of Mayor Hanif Jatrabari-Gulistan flyover. Although any sort of unauthorized entry or activities (including photography) are strictly prohibited in this construction site, sometimes your professional affiliation can really be helpful.
The shot was captured by pushing the camera lens inside the iron inner structure of a mega pillar. Several hundreds of such pillars will be constructed to support the flyover.
Standing before his throne, my mind went into a whirl of memories
...moments of want and desire ... of things that were never meant to be mine
Yes Greed was very familiar to me, his face was a mirror.. not a reflection but a depth,
one that continued beyond places I had long forgot
There was a sameness to this moment.....
He took a deep breath and began to hiss...
This little chipmunk really like peanuts. He stopped by many times to grab more

The remains of the old bank in Ryolite, Nevada stands as a reminder of the emptiness of greed. A life dominated by the "want of money" and "things" is a hollow thing indeed!
