a painting of my favorite hands in the world,
and in turn, the very balm, to soothe my lips, I carry daily. a valuable resource!

dynasties, families, they instill pride sometimes, often devastated, and devastating, etc.

be careful of enclosure, and hoarding space, time, resource, you may have never had abundance, nevertheless, embrace seasonality, and exchange accordingly

I’ll close this series of posts with this one.
The simplest paintings can be so rich,

from the silence of deep winter, the twinkle of springs chirping is ever so vibrant—February

a will to preach is usually taken on by one who recognizes their endowment, it may be unwanted, or falsely claimed. Yet we may all be encouraged by the next. Your stage may vary in structure. Watch the heavy hand of course, and yield to the evidence of your misguidance.

a furrowed brow for an unfathomable February,
still a lot a ugly in action, and looming (…)

never mind the person, understand the position, from even your own perspective,

quick painting, as just the means toward,

the likeness found in the sentiment—
empuzzlement, skepticism, yet attentive indeed(…)

mid(isch) February,
—deep winter, toward an awakening (…)

at length, my hair is actually quite straight( I wish it were curly,) but cut short, and it coils on to itself,

mind you, the coil, as an unbound spiral, is a building block of a spring, a simple phenomenon of great potential,

so screw you if my hair is proficient at accumulation, gathering, there’s strength there too! (…)

Back to the dread, it’s still early February,(…)

Day, night, I’m wake as you sleep, and I wake as you wake. Like a comedian, a vulnerable position to serve under.
The curtains close, if there were curtains,
the applause ends, if there was applause,
Oh the isolation and silence,
but the evenings can get rowdy— posh and feral cat fights, the unnameable myriad of urban circumstances,

Uncle Tom, Uncle Sam, Samuel L. has tried each position; the stage can very much be a position of leverage, yet you must recognize who you stand before, and for whom you stand,
