I'm clear to see, in focus dishevelled around the edges fading out or fading in but I don't look because it's not clear to me there's something wrong to have pigment but blend seamlessly because there's no colour or contrast unfinished, incomplete, unknown or still to be defined lost in my thoughts, to dream does this disconnect or seek connection to wonder... it takes so much time but here I am, to be observed I hear the affirmations they twirl like the tendrils of my hair until they've disappeared into the background then I ponder all I don't know forgetting I've been told to discover again a fleeting spark of joy

Sepia, the pigment derived from the ink sac of the common cuttlefish, always intrigued by this medium. A stream of consciousness perfectly flowing, Miss Dilly. Congratulations, a trophy win, that's awesome!

Filling in or falling apart, you fit the picture so well, eloquently described by yourself, indeed fleeting sparks of joy come and go, and can leave bonfires or embers in their wake, brilliant and a Fave, cheers David

You've just reminded me that I want to cook a jacket potato on a bonfire and see if it tastes like 1985 whilst watching the embers float around... I might wait til November - it's called a meandering mind haha :D
