👁️ Observing the social equations of Life 👁️
Pinned
shade of night
the earth sighing beneath me
chosen shadows imprinted
by spirits and broad cadence
signaling the presence
of blanketed bodies
lacking the state of sleep

letters never posted
classic impossible daydreams
night creeping in
a bleeding wind

loose tendrils
and butterfly blues
speakeasy morning
no smugglers here
only red coldness
subsiding in stillness
light catchers all the same

when does the spirit
find the splendor again
searching for me
traveling through #time
silence #without meaning
nuances in the static

Just now in front of McMurdo Station. Very rare to see Emperor's come right up to the front of McMurdo Station, especially so early in the summer. #scicomm 🧪

a sense of protectiveness
for our Earth and humanity
rooted in the natural world
imagery summoned
these gifts of forethought
remembering my species
acts of cruelty and charm
both beating their chests
in vain for recognition

parts still churn
in the midnight caves
etchings carved out
ambience lost in the scatter
of split classic creatures
transforming into shadows
wild, gifted and powerful

licking honey from the dawn
solace in the moment
carrying the scent

pivotal moments
mark a turning point
a meaning implied
to the truth decay
for original thought
gives the edge
to ride anew
trusting any contrast
within the practice
