Memory DC



  He said:


‘Nobody
Ever
talks about
Memory'.


So we did:



How it can
Set you down
In a vanished landscape


Where you were
Happy once
or


Grieving;

How scent
Triggers it:


Lilac
Iris
Mown grass
Burning leaves
A thunderstorm
Cigar smoke
Hot tar
The ocean


How it transforms
NOW
Making richer
Every experience
As every experience moves
Into memory.

(happily playing around with Diana.  Thanks to Kristen for this scintillating drawing challenge.  Go to her place for more on the subject of memory).

  4. Wonderful images. I almost imagine seeing images inside someone's mind.
    is no mystery that the words spoken, something we do not see, let images in our memory?

  5. Really grand to see how you're using the Diana app to composite ideas ... much like sketching with photos, don't you think?
    Swell stuff. Feels like a language coming naturally for you ;>]]
