Timing

This poem is about how things can twist and change so easily and wondering what would happen if we could ‘backdate’ an encounter Sometimes when I am sitting Drinking coffee Dreaming of you I imagine what it would be like If we could turn back the clocks To when we were not pitted and scarredContinue reading “Timing”

Now

I have a confession to make, I have another love in my life. I have been working on another venture and this weekend it took flight. I am now the founder of an arts space here in Stitchopolis. Can you believe it?? Check it out here. Hope you like!

Anthropology 2: art student

I lost my jacket, heels and case i left them way behind. I cut my hair and changed my spex, become another kind. I left the ranks of the well paid I missed the Budget speech, I said goodbye to 9 to 5… It all is out of reach. ‘These days I google concept art iContinue reading “Anthropology 2: art student”

Sound

I love the sound of the wind in trees. I go and listen to a tree near my house when I need space and time. Today I listened to different trees : but the effect is the same. Bliss is in the breeze.

Janus

so many sites, so many forums, so many faces….here’s a selection of the images I posted tonight…. There is no rhyme or reason to my choices, but they are slightly different.

I’m in one of the watering holes drinking a very abstemious fizzy water and attempting to sneakContinue reading “Notes from inside”

Blank

I haven’t written a poem in ages. My pen sticks to sketching, My words have gone dark. I’ve not been rhyming I’ve not written ditties. It’s brush strokes these days that I work. Perhaps I have hoisted myself from the depths I really don’t know why I’ve stopped. I think it’s a temporary, interim thingContinue reading “Blank”

Map 2

have a look at my sister blog’s post on where I’ve got to on these ideas so far….

Map 1

well, I start my Fine Art MA next week…so I went to the previous years’ Final Show today and had the chance to see what type of work is being done by the current graduating class. I came away with spaghetti brain….ideas spilling out of my head. I do like a shove in the rightContinue reading “Map 1”

Kansas

Sometimes I feel like I have lots of different sides, a human dodecahedron if you will. There is my old professional life when I used to advise multinationals and get involved in megadeals. There is my life as a wife and mother, even though I shudder at the term. Domesticity is not a bad thingContinue reading “Kansas”
