One Pulse

One PulseAnd then my heart with pleasure fills, and dances with the daffodils. :: William Wordsworth ::Sometimes when I’m sitting down, I feel a pulse beating in my kneecap, in my thigh, in my rib, in my ear, in my hip, or in my heel.Knowing that adverse forces and energies abound, I always check to be sure that it is beating in time with my heart and not some lingering, unresolved etheric imprint that longs to be recognized though it is doomed to an eternal limbo of unfulfilled wishes.As soon…See More

:: Found Art :: [writing Samples]

:: Shine On ::Everyone and everything are moving around me at light speed. I am sure that some days I must look like one of those die hard monks in Tiananmen Square, standing at the epicenter of a busy intersection like an anomaly exhibiting her humanity. My arms are at my sides, my posture is upright, my eyes are closed, and I have a look of peace about my face that reflects the dissociative episode I am undergoing in the name of enlightenment and progress. They say the treatment for this kind…See More

Life Notes

Flipping through post-it notes and journal entries:

The First Line

A friend in distress asked me for a life vest in the form of creative inspiration. Help, give me a writing exercise. I responded with some words to start off a reverie:

Inside we travel distances to arrive at our beginning...

How does yours end?…

Dragons & Emperors

Posted on April 6, 2010 at 6:00pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

Take 6 words and form them into a short poem or prose piece.

Try with these 6:

:: purity ::

:: emperor ::

:: dragon ::

:: effort ::

:: bliss ::

:: border ::

Each of us is called to transform ourselves

from mistress to Empress--

from pawns to Kings and Queens

"We’re conscious of blossoming and withering
both at once.
And somewhere lions rove, all unaware,
while still in their splendor, of any weakness"

Living in Montana, I am ever aware of this-- mountain lions and griizzly bears. But I wonder if they know their "splendor" at all. I just think they ARE. I strive to be like them.

It is crystal clear to me, you and writing are without question a perfect match! The keen insight you posess is profoundly reflected with each and every word you write... Which leaves me to conclude that life has decorated you with wisdom and an infinite passion far beyond your years ...Your writing is absolutetly alluring with it's electrifying patterns, perfect pitch, and flow. I can best describe your writing by the way it fuels my sense of purpose which in turn transcends my spirit to a higher plane within my humaneness...I am in awe of your extraordinary talent!

Peace Julie...
