My Dragon Fly and Me
If I could be a Dragon Fly and wing my way through the sky I would never be shy just me and my Dragon Fly!
By moonlight we ride the wind chase the comets tail for fun by day we would hide from the sun our fragile wings would come undone
On darkest nights we would use fireflies as our guide we would dip and we would glide through the heavens open wide and scatter diamonds in the night sky my Dragon Fly and me...
And we would wing past our lovers silent in the night... to kiss their face in our flight much to their surprise and delight my Dragon Fly and me in sight...
Such a view do we share away up here in the air of breezes soft through our hair my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Word for the Day, Monday, June 2, 2008—execration

execration
After all the execration
was done for the day
Hillary, began to execute
a new plan to purloin votes
and twist necks
after a stiff whiskey or two
Hillary started to brew
a new potion of poison to spew
The ripoff the Clintons did
on the nation in the nineties
it is said, did not satisfy the
thirst of their greediness
give us eight more years
to rip and tear America to tears
the agenda has not been executed
the air is rift with mendacity
and tricks, so please let the process
go forth, Hillarys thirst for power is worse.

My muses are elusive and only show up when they feel like it.
Sometimes they show up when I’m frustrated and angry at a point I get stuck in a painting and if I get mad enough, a muse will show up and do it better than I ever could.
It’s a love/hate relationship.

Thank you LJ, this is nice too.
Somehow the Picasso quote touched something in me when I needed it.

To me Picasso was more inspirational verbally than he was artistically.
The artist is a receptacle for the emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.” |

Greek Muses have been assigned to poetry styles.
Though the Muses, when taken together, form a complete picture of the subjects proper to poetic art, the association of specific muses with specific art forms is a later innovation. The Muses were not assigned standardized divisions of poetry with which they are now identified until late Hellenistic times. The canonical nine Muses, with their fields of patronage, as established since the Renaissance, are:
Calliope (the 'beautiful of speech'): chief of the muses and muse of epic or heroic poetry
Clio (the 'glorious one'): muse of history
Erato (the 'amorous one'): muse of love or erotic poetry, lyrics, and marriage songs
Euterpe (the 'well-pleasing'): muse of music and lyric poetry
Melpomene (the 'chanting one'): muse of tragedy
Polyhymnia or Polymnia (the '[singer] of many hymns'): muse of sacred song, oratory, lyric, singing and rhetoric
Terpsichore (the '[one who] delights in dance'): muse of choral song and dance
Thalia (the 'blossoming one'): muse of comedy and bucolic poetry
Urania (the 'celestial one'): muse of astronomy

Lol, I agree with you, Picasso’s words have more meaning than his paintings.
Getting ready to get a perm, lol, see you later.

You didn't hear??
It's tragic.
One morning the seven dwarfs headed to work at the mine, while snow white stayed home and prepared lunch. Just before noon she arrived with sandwiches, only to learn that there had been a terrible cave-in. Fearing the worst, Snow White, began calling out, hoping that some of the dwarfs had survived. 'Hello? Hello?" She hollered. "Can anyone hear me? Hello?". For quite a while there was no answer. Getting desperate, Snow White tried again. "Hello . Is anyone down there?"
Just as she was giving up all hope, a faint voice came from deep within the mine. Someone was going, "Vote for Hillary! Vote for Hillary!"
Totally relieved Snow White wiped a tear from her eye and screamed ecstatically, "Thank god, Dopey is still alive!"
