It rained AGAIN, all night. All night. Today was a partly Sunny only just a reasonably warm day and i spent it with cloth. I was quiet.
A wild wind had blown this down from where it's been hanging from the Big Beam (where i intend to put the hanging rag rug loom) , hung it on the wall and thought about how much i like it even tho it is almost nothing at all. And got lost in thought for a little while thinking of things i could DO to it to make it "more", but then realized that anything would Undo the reason why i like it so much.
and for some Unknown reason, i had the urge to look for this one. Made so long ago, at the Beginning of Jude. I think it was because i have been thinking about "story" all night and then on into this day...maybe that's it?, and i wanted to look at it and see what it might tell me.
But mostly, it was this. I tried a while, to use that other scrap of cloth for Her. I wanted to because it was so Soft and so how i remember the Feeling of her, that Biggest Lizard of All (that i haven't seen since) (maybe soon, again) but it just wasn't working. So i began again and this is good. Except for her left leg, the legs and arms are pretty much ok. I have to wait to do the hands and feet till the grass seed stems are in place. The hands and feet need to be just exactly right. As they ARE on lizards. .... Wild Lizards as the kids used to call them.....wild lizards. That makes me smile.
and i'll just say it. I was expecting Patricia to, but she is deep into her Life at the moment, but one of August's Eyes, the left one, became a Goat eye. and that striated shape just above, amidst the petals is not a petal but a horn. Story tells its Self.
and since i write here about any particular day as it IS, i have to confess. I wasn't going to. But, here i am, needing to.... Last eve i turned the hose on under the Close Young Cottonwood to run softly on her earth. and i FORGOT. In the middle of the night, in the middle of the night with Rain steadily coming down, i woke and went out with the flashlight and sure enough. Flooded. This morning i saw that Tay must have tried to bring it over to the porch. She's into hoses. She gave up when it got hung up on the Child Buddha Diamond bed and left it. The water from it had gone and gone and gone into a crevice and now there is a deep sink hole. Not big, but deep.
So, here it is. This day.
and as i was writing the above, a Storm was coming fast over the Rim. I shut down the computer for Lightening just in time. But then it was so fast, MOVING, that SUN was Glaringly Beauty Full at the Same Time and Rain and Sun and Lightning and Thunder and everything was glistening and Wet so i tried to get a pic of that but i couldn't but look......., those little Spirits.....
