Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
(New Living Translation)
For everything there is a season,
A time for every activity under heaven.
A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to plant and a time to harvest.
A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up
.
A time to cry and a time to laugh.
A time to grieve and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a time to turn away
.
A time to search and a time to quit searching
.
A time to keep and a time to throw away.
A time to tear and a time to mend.
A time to be quiet and a time to speak
.
A time to love and a time to hate
.
A time for war and a time for peace.
New Living Translation

I create galleries

words that sing, dance and ride rainbows.
handmade
and electronic.
I create youngsters
who create art pieces
that sing, dance and ride rainbows.
handmade
and electronic.
In my home
every room has a drafting table
every wall, artwork.
We carry our tools
in pockets
at the ready
to sing, dance and ride rainbows.
From chaos to order
from table to show space,
art that sings, dances and rides rainbows!

Alvin Ailey Dance Troop
Instrument of Human Body
instruments dance to
stretch to flow to grow to show
sheer sublimity
Nothing moves in a straight line,
But in arcs, epicycles, spirals and gyres.
Nothing living grows in cubes, cones, or rhomboids,
Marge Piercy

Through the glass:
21st floor
W25th St NYC

NO LIMITS TO INNOVATION
Blurb launched Imprimatur!
“Let it be printed!”
Books are here to stay!
Smell, hear, dance, see, touch!
“Let it be printed!”
In romance language that burns
Itself to your gut; leaves traces
Of quests, valor, guideposts, honor.
Books are here to stay!
Info marches on, in sound, on screen:
designs that soothe the rub
balance the rush: lead home.
Smell, hear, dance, see, touch!
Jump though: leave your mark;
Tap the root; press the bud;
Shout the book song launch!
