Inspired by the work of @trioletjam.bsky.social & @daveashleypoet.bsky.social thought I'd give it a shot.😊 #TrioletJam #Triolet #TrioletPoetry 'The Level' You hurt me; I hurt you all the same, We each eat our quiet wrongs; We level morals, licensing our game; You hurt me; I hurt you all the same.

A group of local Seattle artists and cultural workers have drafted a letter to Mayor Wilson requesting that the city divert funds away from SPD and redirect it towards the arts. The main argument? Arts activations and cultural programming should be considered a form of public safety infrastructure.

Why Can’t Seattle Fund the Arts Like It’s FIFA Every Year? - The Stranger

There’s a draft of an open letter to Mayor Katie Wilson and the Seattle City Council that’s been making the rounds on social media and racking up signatures over the past few days. The request: divert $8 million from SPD’s $68 million proposed budget increase and give that money to the arts. The reasoning? Art […]

Instead of my work, today it seemed appropriate to lead with one of the most influential elegies, ‘Annabel Lee‘ by Edgar Allen Poe. Its unique tone echoes one of the inimitable truths in life: "That which begins as a fairy tale rarely remains so, for the darkness ever lies in wait."

The gate of Bishamontang, Emissary Santo, Yamashina District, Kyoto City

Framed by a blazing canopy of Japanese maples (momiji), a steep stone pathway (chokushimichi) rises toward a dark wooden gate, its steps completely buried beneath a thick carpet of scarlet foliage. Slender bamboo handrails flank the stone stairs, leading the eye along a dramatic linear perspective toward the imperial messenger gate at the crest of the slope. Overhead, interlocking branches filter the light, casting a warm crimson glow over the damp stone and moss-covered embankments. The scene evokes an intimate sensory atmosphere: the crisp mountain air of a Kyoto morning, the faint scent of damp moss and aged cedar, the soft crunch of fallen leaves underfoot, and the profound, reverent hush of an ancient temple precinct.
Located at Bishamon-do Temple in the Yamashina District of Kyoto, this approach—known as the chokushimichi (Imperial Messenger Path)—is renowned for its late-autumn sando (shrine approach), where fallen leaves form an iconic momiji no jūtan (maple carpet). Originally founded in 703 AD by the monk Gyōki and re-established at its present site in 1665, Bishamon-dō is a distinguished monozeki temple (traditionally presided over by members of the imperial family or high nobility). The Chokushimon Gate at the top of the stairs was reserved for official imperial envoys, reflecting the sanctuary's esteemed lineage. The seamless integration of stone masonry, timber architecture, and natural forest contours reflects the supreme craft of Japanese zōen (landscape architecture) and monozukuri (artisanal mastery), designed to celebrate the subtle shifts of the seasonal calendar.

Somehow we broke the illusion on a sunny day. So long, so long, be strong. In parallel worlds we now stray. Cherished laughter, chipped-rim cups, lour no more. Let the clouds pour, let the rainy day hold sway wash and purify our souls away. ~rev #vss365

We won't always bring each other joy will we? Life could never be so easy- that in another we could find all that we need. But in my moments of darkness, if you could just hold a candle & I would do as much for you then that would be enough that will always be enough. #poem #poetry

Perhaps existence is not measured by how long we are here, but by how deeply we love while we are. We are brief sparks in an ancient universe, yet love gives our moment meaning, and maybe that is the greatest mystery of all. 🌌❤️ Perhaps, in the end, love is what remains.
