It's cold in here

I wanna get out

I'm slowly dying could it be I'm in my watery grave

Black water

No quarter

Now I'm stuck in here, screaming

Cause my times running out

4 2 6 2 10 5 1

I told you not to play my game

4 2 6 2 10 5 1

Now you're

Gone!

I'm scratching off my nails

Keep on kicking the walls

Seems I'm never gonna find my way out

Started off as a game

But now I'm floating in a coffin

As my breath is running out

4 2 6 2 10 5 1

I told you not to play my game

4 2 6 2 10 5 1

Now you're

Gone!

What I feel lately is 50 shades of hate me

And I can't seem to break free

I don't like what I'm feelin' maybe

My self-medicating

At the point of breaking

I'm not sure if you're relating

I just need to feel like I'm the one worth saving

You lift me up in times when I wanna die

Intoxicated by your magic spellz you weave all the time

You bring me down every time I feel alive

I'm trying, I'm living I'm dying this minute

You bring me up and take me down

Life smacks the face I hold my ground

Another day to sing this song aloud

I wonder can they hear me screaming

Switch it now, change the day and take whatever comes my way I gotta

Say that this magical spell is heaven or hell when it

Plays it can lighten or darken up your day push it away

You lift me up in times when I wanna die

Intoxicated by your magic spellz you weave all the time

You bring me down every time I feel alive

I'm trying, I'm living I'm dying this minute

I try to live but they want me to cease to be

I'm shedding skin cutting teeth and becoming me...

Finger pointed shaming an everybody blaming

What if I leave escaping

This I know it'll be here waiting

Anticipating

My downfall on the daily

But you give all that you gave me

And it saved me and it saved me and it saved me

You lift me up in times when I wanna die

Intoxicated by your magic spellz you weave all the time

You bring me down every time I feel alive

I'm trying, I'm living I'm dying this minute

The medieval old town of Kotor, in Montenegro, is home to hundreds of stray cats (and the reason we had to nip over the border to Montenegro during our Albanian road trip!) They’re looked after and adored by locals and visitors alike and are considered, here, a sign of good luck! Charity Kotor Kitties also helps to feed and medicate these beautiful creatures :)

🎵 I'm tired of being what you want me to be…. Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface…. Cause everything that you thought I would be, has fallen apart right in front of you…. I've become so numb, I can't feel you there…. All I want to do is be more like me and be less like you - You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

I’m stuck in all that I’m used to

I shouldn’t stay but I choose to

Fail my heart everytime I give in

I’m a slave to the memories

Play it safe So I never leave

Oh it’s day after day

I just dance with pain

They say I’m more than the scars on my back

But all of my demons keep holding me back

Right into that open door

Somewhere that I’ve been before

Can’t seem to get no rest

Trying to escape myself

I guess I must confess

I’m Comfortable in this mess

Better the ache I know

Scared of the fate I don’t

Just like a hand to hold

At least I’m not alone

Pride Lays the rules that I choose to obide

latching on tempting me to the high

Though it’s flawed by design I give in

War in my veins

Can’t get away

Self medicate

Oh lord

Thoughts in my brain

Are never sane

I’m never in control

Running through that open door

Somewhere that I been before

Can’t seem to get no peace of mind

All these feelings never fade

And the pain won’t go away

And it haunts me

That nobody’s

Gonna save me

They say I’m more than the scars on my back

But all of my demons keep holding me back

Right into that open door

Somewhere that I’ve been before

Can’t seem to get no rest

Trying to escape myself

I guess I must confess

Comfortable in this mess

Better the ache I know

Scared of the fate I don’t

Just like a hand to hold

At least I’m not alone

Psycho? Probably not, we all have a little something that makes us "special" Embrace it, enjoy it and just be you. The right people will enjoy the good days and stay for the bad ones. Peace and love to all.

Took me on a hell-of-a-ride

I'm still trying to figure her out

Never stops her flip flopping

City girl got me tripped up

I'm caught up in the running around

I shoulda seen it coming

Shoulda known that i was reading her wrong (reading her wrong)

I thought that i could walk away

And you'd be fine with just moving on (moving on)

But now I know-ooh

She's cute but psycho (cute but psycho)

I'm letting go-ooh

But she's banging on my door (oh)

Call 9-1-1

She's cute but psycho

It's written right on your face

Middle of the night at my place

Screaming how i'm doing you wrong

Forty-nine missed calls

Pretty green eyes like waterfalls

You only want me now that i'm gone

I shoulda seen it coming

Shoulda known that i was reading her wrong (reading her wrong)

I thought that i could walk away

And you'd be fine with just moving on (moving on)

Sometimes, I wonder if I should be medicated

If I would feel better just lightly sedated

The feeling comes so fast and I cannot control it

I'm on fire, but I'm trying not to show it

As it picks me up, puts me down

It picks me up, puts me down

Picks me up, puts me down

A hundred times a day

It picks me up, puts me down

Chews me up, spits me out

Picks me up, puts me down

I'm always running from something

I push it back, but it keeps on coming

And being clever never got me very far

Because it's all in my head

"You're too sensitive", they said

I said, "Okay, but let's discuss this at the hospital"

(As it) picks me up, puts me down

Picks me up, puts me down

Picks me up, puts me down

A hundred times a day

Picks me up, puts me down

Chews me up, spits me out

Picks me up, puts me down

But I hear the music, I feel the beat

And for a moment, when I'm dancing, I am free

I hear the music, I feel the beat

And for a moment, when I'm dancing, I am free

I am free

Is this how it is? Is this how it's always been?

To exist in the face of suffering and death

And somehow still keep singing?

Oh, like Christ up on a cross

Who died for us, who died for what?

Oh, don't you wanna call it off?

But there is nothing else that I know how to do

But to open up my arms and give it all to you

'Cause I hear the music, I feel the beat

And for a moment, when I'm dancing, I am free

I am free

I am free

I am free

Help me if you can

It's just that this is

Not the way I'm wired

So could you please,

Help me understand why

You've given in to all these

Reckless dark desires

Your

Lying to yourself again

Suicidal imbecile

You're pounding on a fault line

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

Over this, why do you

Wanna throw it away like this

Such a mess, well I don't wanna watch you

Disconnect and self destruct one

Bullet at a time

What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

Medicated, drama queen,

picture perfect, numb belligerence

Narcissistic, drama queen, craving fame and all it's decadence

Lying through your teeth again

Suicidal imbecile

You're pounding on a fault line

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

Over this, why do you wanna

Throw it away like this

Such a mess.

Why would I wanna watch you...

Disconnect and self destruct one bullet at a time?

What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

They were right about you

They were right about you

Lying to my face again

Suicidal imbecile

Think about, you're pounding on the fault line

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

I'm over this. Why do you wanna throw it away like this

Such a mess, over this, over this!

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time

What's your hurry, everyone will have his day to die

If you choose to pull the trigger, should your drama prove sincere,

Do it somewhere far away from here.

What a hectic couple of weeks. We noticed Hank was a bit lame so made an appointment with the vet. It turned out his lameness was due to him having a fractured hip which would need surgery so an appointment was made with a specialist. Now it would be bad enough him having a fractured hip and needing surgery at the best of times but having this happen two weeks before we have to leave for our son's wedding just added that bit more stress to an already stressful situation. We had the consultation on Friday and when I explained our dilemma the surgeon offered to do the surgery that afternoon rather than us having to wait for the following week. Anyway the surgery was done Friday afternoon and we brought a very well medicated Hank home yesterday, sporting his "Cone Of Courage". And yes, I know most people refer to it as the Cone Of Shame but I feel when a little animal is taken from an environment where they feel safe and secure, left in a strange place not knowing if their humans will return for them, are prodded and poked by strangers and have an assault on their bodies (however much we know it is needed, they don't), there is no shame, only courage. As I write this he is resting peacefully and will purr whenever we go into the room so I would say all is well in his world once again.

PS. For anyone thinking about Pet Insurance and have had people tell them to just put the cost of the monthly insurance aside in a separate account for your pet instead, don't fall for it. I did and I can tell you that $50.00/month doesn't go very far when you have only had your pet for 18 months. Hank is now fully insured and even though none of this will be covered, I now have the peace of mind that in the future anything unexpected will be. it is a small price to pay for my peace of mind.

As dark as it ever gets, the answers will come.

Pictures from Ann Arbor on a comfortable summer day - Wednesday August 4th, 2021. I gave a medicated pecan to a squirrel in the Law Quad who had some scabs on her back. Could be early or a minor case of mange. The squirrels always make me happy - hope they do the same for you. Sending love from Ann Arbor, Michigan.

From Descendant, my 2nd zine with Bump Books. Available here: bumpbooks.com/zines-1/simon-kossoff-descendant

From my blog:

"A backdrop panoramic montage of dramatic landscapes and an asphalt ribbon of a road that can only be measured in stops for gasoline and all the photographs seen but not taken. While the space between is strung out on a thread of cigarettes and coffee and medicated by this, that, or the other, if I'm lucky. Where the odometer counts my breaths in miles driven in an hour and the AC wheezes like a ventilator. This is my life support, this is my quarantine, and this is why I cannot seem to find the words to say out loud. I am accelerating and everything has so much distance between it and one point is so far from the next that I lose my way between them sometimes."

I went grocery shopping today. Fortunately they sell things to ease the pain.

Pictures from a mild Winter's day on campus - Thursday February 25th, 2021. Got some more medicated pecans and hooked up two squirrels on the Diag. Some look a bit worse for wear, but we all do this year, right? Sending love and virtual hugs from Ann Arbor, Michigan.

i'm medicated, how are you?

In antichità era la rocca di Savignano Lungoreno, antico maniero appartenuto alla Gran Contessa Matilde di Canossa e distrutto nel 1293. Molti secoli dopo, su quello spuntone di roccia che domina il comune di Grizzana Morandi, nel bolognese, il Conte Cesare Mattei decise di costruire quella che sarebbe diventata la futura Rocchetta Mattei, un luogo straordinario destinato a restare unico e inimitato.

La prima pietra fu posata il 5 novembre del 1850; solo nove anni più tardi il Conte, tra i fondatori della Cassa di Risparmio di Bologna nonché deputato al Parlamento di Roma, poté finalmente trovare dimora in quello che si mostrò subito in tutta la sua eccezionalità: un castello dalle forme fiabesche, costruito e arredato con una miscela eclettica e surreale di arte islamica, medievale e moderna, in cui facevano capolino cupole moresche, labirinti di scale escheriane, soffitti decorati a muqarnaṣ e un fiero ippogrifo di pietra a guardia della fortezza.

Da quel luogo delle meraviglie il Conte non si stacco più, trascorrendo l’intera vita a inventare e arredare nuove stanze. Ai suoi tempi d’oro nella Rocchetta trovarono ospitalità principi e sovrani, tra cui (si narra) Ludovico III di Baviera e lo Zar Alessandro II di Russia. Gli ambienti esoterici della Rocchetta furono anche lo scenario degli esperimenti del Conte, profondo studioso di quella che lui stesso battezzò elettromeopatia: una terapia medica di sua invenzione basata sull’abbinamento di “granuli medicati” e liquidi, detti anche “fluidi elettrici”. Queste tecniche segrete – su cui il Conte iniziò a esercitarsi dopo la morte della madre per tumore, adirato con la classe medica che non era riuscita a salvarla né ad alleviarne il dolore – ebbero enorme fortuna grazie anche a importanti citazioni (ne parla Dostoevskji ne I fratelli Karamàzov) e a testimoniati casi di guarigione.

Dopo la morte di Mattei nel 1896 per la Rocchetta iniziarono i tempi bui dell’abbandono. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale il castello venne saccheggiato dai tedeschi e gli eredi, non si sa bene il perché, tentarono di donarlo al Comune di Bologna, che rifiutò. Dopo un nuovo, lungo periodo di declino, nel 2006 il complesso venne acquistato e successivamente restaurato dalla Fondazione della Cassa di Risparmio di Bologna.

Dal 2015, data di riapertura al pubblico, la Rocchetta è diventata un’importante attrazione turistica del bolognese.

(testo liberamente tratto da un articolo de "Il Fatto quotidiano"

In ancient times it was the fortress of Savignano Lungoreno, an ancient manor that belonged to the Grand Countess Matilda of Canossa and destroyed in 1293. Many centuries later, on that spike of rock that dominates the municipality of Grizzana Morandi, in the Bolognese, Count Cesare Mattei decided to build what would become the future Rocchetta Mattei, an extraordinary place destined to remain unique and imitated.

The foundation stone was laid on November 5, 1850; only nine years later the Count, one of the founders of the Cassa di Risparmio di Bologna and member of the Parliament of Rome, was finally able to find a home in what was immediately shown in all its exceptionality: a castle with fairytale shapes, built and furnished with an eclectic and surreal blend of Islamic, medieval and modern art, in which Moorish domes peeped , mazes of Escherian stairs, ceilings decorated with muqarnaṣ and a proud stone hippogriff guarding the fortress.

From that place of wonders the Count no longer detaches, spending his whole life inventing and furnishing new rooms. In his golden days princes and kings found hospitality in the Rocchetta, including (it is said) Louis III of Bavaria and Tsar Alexander II of Russia. Rocchetta's esoteric environments were also the scene of the Conte's experiments, a deep scholar of what he himself called electromeopathy: a medical therapy of his invention based on the combination of "medicated granules" and liquids, also called "electric fluids". These secret techniques – on which the Count began to practice after the death of his mother from cancer, angry with the medical class that had failed to save her or relieve her pain – were enormously fortunate thanks also to important quotations (Dostoevskji talks about it in The Brothers Karamazov) and to witness cases of healing.

After Mattei's death in 1896, the dark days of abandonment began for the Rocchetta. During World War II the castle was sacked by the Germans and the heirs, it is not known why, tried to donate it to the Municipality of Bologna, which it refused. After a new, long period of decline, in 2006 the complex was purchased and later restored by the Foundation of the Cassa di Risparmio di Bologna.

Since 2015, the date of reopening to the public, the Rocchetta has become an important tourist attraction of the Bolognese.

Fox squirrels on a cold Winter's day in Ann Arbor, Tuesday February 15th, 2022. So today I was looking for Snow White and Doc. I needed to give Doc his second medicated pecan. I finally found them on the tree to the southwestern corner of the UMMA - right next to the old entrance. I hooked up Doc (pretty sure - they are hard to tell apart). I am fairly certain they share a cavity nest in that tree in front of UMMA. And I found another one who needed meds - I will call her Bashful in keeping with the Snow White theme. I might give them all a new round starting next week - I am sure they could use it. So many patients to monitor! There also is a fox squirrel by Tappan Hall who has almost no fur on his tail. I will hook up that little one later. Also saw box fox squirrels and American red squirrels in cavity nests - so that was fun. The fox squirrel in the nest by Ross is using a COVID face mask as part of the padding. Wishing you joy and health wherever you are and best wishes for the new year.

Yesterday I adopted this pretty girl from a local shelter. She was found as a stray in Modesto, California, back in August. At one point, there was already a date set to euthanize her. She's been through a rough few months.

She is about 5 years old and clearly has some Australian Cattle Dog (Red Heeler) in her.

The whole adoption process was very stressful for me as well, so difficult to make such a monumental choice in an extremely chaotic and distracting environment, but as soon as Tidda walked in, I began to relax. We just fit!

She has been quite traumatized by her ordeal and was even medicated with trazodone (sedating antidepressant) in California, but in the 24 hours I've had her, she has already begun her new life well and actually is sleeping a lot. It seems like she recognizes a dog-shaped emptiness beside me and naturally steps into that space.

I named her Tidda, which is an indigenous Australian word for sister or female friend. As all creatures are our brothers and sisters, she will be my sister. And she is also Blanca's sister in spirit.

Two more pictures in comments.

I hear the leaves talking in their sleep....they are saying that the should wake up pretty soon, time to get out and stretch out their little arms and legs.....no...I'm not medicated just very hopeful....;-)

... if I should be medicated...

Fox squirrels on a weird Winter's day in Ann Arbor, Thursday February 17th, 2022. It was raining and warm in the morning - but snowing in the afternoon. Saw a red squirrel by Lorch and another squirrel who did not have any fur on his tail. I will call this little one Ratso. I gave this little one a medicated pecan - thinking it might help. I will keep and eye on this one. Pictures of soggy squirrels was the theme of the day! Wishing you joy and health wherever you are and best wishes for the new year.

Back in 2017 I had just suffered a long haul PE whilst flying out to New Zealand. The short walk around the headland at Mount Maunganui where we came across this Eastern Rosella was more like an endurance treck. I was medicated, still suffering but on holiday at the other side of the world and this was the first time I ventured away from the car. With nothing quite so bright back home in Yorkshire I was pleased I had made the effort.

Fox squirrels at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday January 18th, 2023. It is also the day I make sure I hook up my mange patients with their medicated pecans. I am doing it primarily on Wednesdays so I can be sure to pace out the treatments one week apart. Some of them are starting to show some good improvement, and that is nice. Here is wishing you joy, health and peace wherever you are.

Pictures from a quick spin through campus on Tuesday January 12th, 2021. I did notice some squirrels with mange. Luckily, I had my medicated pecans. Fun brief visit with my squirrels. The campus was mostly empty except for the squirrels. It will be like that this Winter Term. Sending love and virtual hugs from Ann Arbor, Michigan.

~ * Painfuless: A duration of time when painful becomes much less.~

An intense me, driven by my mystical medicated mind to meet the week halfway through. (Wednesday)

Have a wonderful Wednesday my friends and smile to a stranger if the opportunity comes around, it may change the entire human existence.
