popcorn

!*!!**! pop!corn! !*!!**!
life of a freelancer working from home, difficult bug to tinker with? deadline looming?
clearly now is the opportune moment to ‘cook’ a huge vat of the stuff
i find it hugely soothing, peering into the pot, wagering on which of the kernels will be next to explode… you! no you!!
something cosmologically calming, like the birth of the universe, random fluctuations within the energy field?
else the more mundane wallop and ricochet of a star exploding… pinball wizard!
its the cornucopia, abundance overflowing, porridge pot from the fairy story of yore
and then you get to gorge guzzle the stuff!!… plump puffed up polystyene… huge mouthfulls, munching on solid air!

sparkle

sun sparkle on sea, one of my favourite things… pic a mere frivolity of gloom, essence remains cheerfully subtle and elusive
i love the way light dissolves in water, yet also, reflects in kisses
as we crawl out from under the burden of days.. been both happily seasonally busy yet quiet and, like many, not feeling to say so much
oh, but also my sock is in their somewhere, got kersploshed in a puddle, then made a bid for freedom and jumped in the sea!
there it lurks, where the jellyfish spawn… both odious and odorous… swim well deeply darned one x
