"The Epiphany Rose" All well and good, the story unfolds; the isolating madness drew out the poets in all the shunned playing up and out their origami word games something like an epiphany rose in them, the mad, recalcitrant ones, like nuns leaving the genuflecting aisles turning backs before all their starched alters dripping idols no longer really there, they were somewhere outside of It all; the closed rose turned around to walk as one, out the doors into the blazing sun finding some strange reunion, peeling off their dark layers, their novitiate romance, their too hot habits disgarded under indigo sky of long dark nights, reeling in the dream like cotton thread from a spinning wheel, strange Ezekial creatures, their nakedness witnessed like whirling dervish calling in revolutions, the expected extracted arriving in the rolling clouds another kingdom comes swiftly opening minds like roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars… the timeless road is now wide open and well lit (Ladylabyrinth / 2023) "…the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars…” (Keroac) "Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels." (Ezekial) “Oh, honey my life and it's got me old fool gold In the gold dust rush I can only genuflect Oh, honey my life and it's got me old fool gold In the gold dust rush In the gold dust rush Honey it is horrible (In the gold dust rush) There's locusts in there She's got the old fool gold …" (Cocteau Twins) "The Meditative Rose"/Dali
