the mug in that PRIVYET! picture anonymous October 5 2010, 06:18:23 UTC

is it an accident that the woman next to Henry James on your chai mug looks so much like you? Or is that the point of the picture? Just curious.

hi-
it's amazing how you saw it! unbelievable - i'll take it as the point of the picture then (before it wasnt))), together with my morning coffee (not tea))))

how are you?

Re: the mug in that PRIVYET! picture anonymous October 6 2010, 06:14:56 UTC

I am doing very well, thank you for asking, but woke up this morning realizing that when I wrote "Henry James" I really meant to write "Henry Miller," and am now embarrassed. That picture on your mug is Miller. Forgive me? :-)

Say...did you turn on your IP address logging because of, uh, anonymous posters like me? All you have to do is ask. Really.

Have a lovely morning.

the human brain is weirdly constructed, so I read Henry Miller instead of James when you first mentioned the mug picture. go figure! so had then to double check that you actually wrote James )))

so I enjoy corresponding with you, and am asking: who are you?

Matt. We met years ago...

Here, as a (gift? apology?) I give you one of my favorite poems by a Welshman relocated to the US:

No One Told Me
by David Whyte

No one told me
it would lead to this.
No one said
there would be secrets
I would not want to know.

No one told me about seeing,
seeing brought me
loss and a darkness I could not hold.

No one told me about writing
or speaking.
Speaking and writing poetry
I unsheathed the sharp edge
of experience that led me here.

No one told me
it could not be put away.
I was told once, only,
in a whisper,
“The blade is so sharp-
It cuts thing together
--not apart.”

This is no comfort.
My future is full of blood
from being blindfold
hands outstretched,
feeling a way along its firm edge.

Mmmmmm.... a gift and apology accepted. "No one told me
it would lead to this."

Since you post such high-def pictures, it's fun to take a closer look. Is that Sveta taking a picture of you, reflected in your sunglasses?

You look beautiful, by the way. Incredibly well-done, lovely picture of you.

:-)

Privet! yes, this is Sveta taking a picture of me, my best and beloved photographer.
and it's nice to hear from you -
