Ah, the Fragrance of the Sea...

...one of my favourite scents... So incredibly rich with life and mysteries... The promise of adventure, of freedom... (That also makes me think of the Seinfeld episode when Kramer comes up with the idea of a beach-scented cologne and tries to sell it to Calvin Klein... Ha! Ha!)

That being said, I'm off to the Caribbeans. No internet so I won't read your blogs... before I return.

Lots of XOXOXO to all my blogging friends and I’ll see you in about three weeks...

(I was trying to write a bigger piece but I didn’t have time to finish it so I’ll link this post instead to Geraldine’s Woven Dreams Prompts, which this week is Perfume...)

Alive in the Coffin of the Night

I look at the dark

and the dark looks back

with eyes of wide windows

or mirrors,

labyrinthine,

dry.

I run around, not sure

if I see in them

my wanted or my unwanted,

others or myself-

hopeless monkey,

unsoothed by familiar objects,

until I am lost in the night-

and the morning never comes.
