hyssop is (as you may know) a purificatory herb that smells like mint from outer space.
– decreation, anne carson

i didn’t really want more champagne, but i wanted him to come back to me.
– revenge, yoko ogawa

all she had consumed all day was smoke, heavy feelings, and chocolate ice cream.
– green girl, kate zambreno

but before this recognition quite a bit of sleeping goes on, or is prevented from going on, in noteworthy ways.
– decreation, anne carson

nobody can judge what goes on between two people. if one can be compassionate, understanding, patient, then the song of the stars begins and love is born.
– i shock myself, beatrice wood

the lakes where his factory has poisoned everything are as beautiful as a brueghel.
– decreation, anne carson

i’ve had the rainbow paper for over a year now, and while the original idea for it didn’t turn out, i’ve come up with another idea… more to come soon!

happy weekend!

this is the painting by gineke zikken i brought home from amsterdam. titled amsterdam zuid, it’s a scene from amsterdam south. i loved the hints of orange and the construction crane.
