Synonymous : Unhurried



I recently had an idea for a new collaborative project with my twin sister, Georgia. (Our Ethereal blog was our first collaboration.)

I named this new project Synophotography, and I've asked my sister to design its logo (above). We will alternate choosing a word and posting a synonymous photo that accompanies that word well in our eyes. In response, the other will post another word that is synonymous with the associated photo.

Georgia starts us out. Her chosen word: languid. Click here to see her languid photo.

My synonymous choice: unhurried.

You'll never leave where you are until you
decide where you'd rather be..




Rococo Zephyr
She lay beside me like a branch from a tender willow tree
I was as still, as still as a river could be
When a rococo zephyr swept over her and me

She watched the water ripple ripple ripple ripple light
Light watched the water ripple ripple ripple ripple she
I did some kind of dance, jaunty as a bee
I tried to look my best, a finch in wild mint vest
A fiercer force had wrenched her from where she used to be
I caught and caressed the length of her, a tender willow branch floating on me

Well maybe this was all, was all meant to be
Maybe this is all, is all that meant to be
A rococo zephyr crept up and stepped over her and me

Well I used to be sort of blind
Now I can sort of see

"We've no more right to put our discordant state of mind into the lives of those around us and rob them of their sunshine and brightness than we have to enter their house
and steal their silverware."

"I can't go on. I'll go on."



"Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness."

Some days, most days, particularly today--what I think of this late fashioned Facebooked, Bloglanded, LinkedIn, Twittered World.




"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better."
