| Full page spread - Pulp Redux (reversible - the page folds again to reveal the other half of the Scottish Flag, the St George Cross) |
Here we go girlas! Not much but enough to make Kim happy, hopefully!! I'm using my new walnut stains, acetate and specially bought fibres, fabrics and paper for my contribution. E.g. the baby, above, is printed in sepia on acetate and then mounted on a playing card with the most delightful, beautiful filigree pattern on the back (more of that later). You can remove the baby from her pouch/envelope too, btw! ANYWAY, to read all about my contribution, click

| What precious little thing is in that envelope? |

| Ahhhh...an unborn baby: the promise of hope and a new start in life. Children were often born on board ship on the way over to our shores or shortly after landing. |

You have perfect timing Debs! I am on the computer because I am too dang knackered to do anything else! (Kids and I just won 3rd equal in sand sculpture comp!) I'm just in the mood for some pulpy inspiration! Will go see your blog for the other half of my inspiration dose!
ReplyDeleteOh it is fantastic Debrina- love how colors reminds me of the sea,in it`s every kind of mood! The hinges are fabulous, big and heawy,and the lock on the envelope,too--made me think of the power it takes to labor a baby-small and fragile--- So beautifull, dear.
ReplyDeleteHugs,Dorthe
beau travail..et les couleurs sont magnifiques!
ReplyDeleteOne more amazing contribution!
ReplyDeleteOh, I've been caught up here with life stuff and missed your post! Lovely Debs, love the poem and the ideas here. The scottish flag is of particular significance to me as my fathers family hail from Scottish origins, (hence the red hair!) so this is particularly close to my heart! I'm off to your blog to find out more, but these glimpses are fantastic! Hugs my friend I love it!

SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE
There's much in the world that you can't explain.
It's revealed for you to remember
by the whispering voice of a distant train
or a midnight rain in november.
Horizon within! You can always find
the keys to Enigma. Let's mention
one basic Truth: of spirited Mind
Is Nature naught but extension.
Internal expanses! In dreams, ridden
by fear and longing you roam
that deep Southeast in your soul hidden
...on your random journey back home.

Casualidad sopla la sangre
de alguno señor desconocido
durante los pocos restantes
momentos del resplandor de faroles
que se vislumbran tras el follaje
flameando de las obsesiónes
igual efimero como gotas
del cinzano de la soledad –
En aquel tiempo me levanta
dentro uno incidente avejentado
que en seguida palidece
al camouflaje de abstraccion;
chica, nadie conoce que tus grisos
ojos significan aún; con todo
el sueño que hube evacuado
tu escudriñas nuevamente.
My Spanish poetry!

LE FRUIT DU CIEL
Un orage nocturne illmuna maintenant l'Amazonie, franchis les Andes, envoya des jeux de cartes gigantesques et frappantes en bas à la Pampa –
Puis: petit déjeuner à melon; café fumant !
À la bague du cigare tu lis, étonné: GÉOGRAPHIE.

Das Leben dergleichen Halbfaßung
der Welt wahr immer nicht wahr,
nicht wahr? Die fristlos Entlaßung
am Ende wird kaum wunderbar.
So laßen uns Menschlingen viele
besonders besonnene zum
Zeitweilegem Zeiten als Ziele
des Lebens halbfaßen darum.

Time travel is by up to date confused "expertise" considered logically impossible albeit physically allowed for by Einstein's equations, as Gödel pointed out. Strange fallacy! The Guy travelling "backwards" in his time machine immediately goes into "hypertime", so to speak, and what was "time" is simply one more spatial dimension. No logical problem whatever; I utterly fail to see, even, how this awful misconception could persist for about a century. OK, on return he happened to crash into my poor would be dad, so what? This calamity occurring somewhere in Universe imperceivable to me, the Flatlander. Etc. Do you follow? You should.
