I have a very different kinda outlook on life. You can't make me mad. Only me can make me mad.

VENICE, CA
. . .
(While you and i have voices which
are for kissing and to sing with
who cares if some oneeyed son of a bitch
invents an instrument to measure Spring with?
each dream nascitur, is not made...)
why then to Hell with that: the other, this,
since the thing perhaps is
to eat flowers and not to be afraid.
from Voices to voices, lip to lip by e.e. cummings

HOLD TO LIGHT BY SKOT

THE BENTLEY RESERVE, SAN FRANCISCO
The ancient craftsman smiled
when I asked him to blow a bottle
to keep your tears in
And he smiled and hummed in rhythm with his hands.
as he carved delicate glass
and stained it with the purple
of a drifting evening sky.
But the bottle is lost in a corner of my house.
How could I know you could not cry?
FOLK SONG by Leonard Cohen

THE GIVING TREE, ONE OF OUR FAVORITE BOUTIQUES, HAS JUST DONE A LOVELY INTERVIEW ABOUT OUR PRAYER COLLECTION...

Two met each other on a star
They drank the wine from another life
Time passed.
Two met each other on a star
They saw the sky
of all colors
as Brother, Sister, one.
Two parted ways
She will remain his Mother
and he her Father
on a star
The earth calls.
