Facing the sky. Here we go.
Chasing my prize.

Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo Sunrise.”

“Orange fluff ball, Rocky is an 18-pound marvel of love, so fluffy, he looks like he’s 26 pounds. He scares the local dogs just by sitting and staring at them. Rocky’s there for me when I get home, purrs when he wants to, leads me to the food bowl when he needs to, licks me in an attempt to heal my wounds, loves cellophane, red ribbons, left over chicken. Rocky, my best friend, is my orange fluff ball, and I wish I could share him with the world. -- Scott C. Holstad, Northern Stars Magazine (2004)”

“Orange pekoe flavor, with that gold confection dust on the top." She holds one up to demonstrate. "Mascarpone filling." She bites it clean in half and shows me the middle. "Rose jelly in the center."
"Sounds good to me. What shall we call it?"
"I don't know."
I reach over and pick up a macaron, the texture, weight, and balance all perfect. Symmetry, lightness, both shells with excellent feet, wedded together with a smooth filling. Nodding with approval, I place it on my tongue. She is right; the orange and rose flavors melt lustily in your mouth. It's just like Mama- all bright and full of surprises.”

Goodbye
shores of peach blossoms and swallows.
Goodbye to the godzila of my lips
drifting from your lips.
Goodbye to the galaxies
that expand towards the interior of a grain of sand.
Goodbye to the sea
of your smiles
in the salt of my thorns.
Goodbye son of man!
Goodbye shores of peach blossoms and swallows.”

“Orașul adormit părea o iluzie născută din lumini de basm.”
“Orbit
Telah kita temukan pintu yang akan membawamu masuk lebih dalam.
Bukan altar yang tertutup kabut
Tetapi bersit cahaya yang menyingkap landskap arsitektur yang selama ini kita cari.
Gedung serupa kastil yang dulu pernah kau bangun kembali dari puing reruntuhan.
Seperti peti artefak kuno yang kautemukan di dalamnya
Lembar manuskrip lama berisi manifesto kesadaran:
Sang anima yang kini jadi pusat gravitasi.
Aku akan menantangmu menemukan kembali gulungan benang yang telanjur hilang.
Teka-teki tentang seberapa dalam kita telah menyelam
Dan ke mana seluruh penghuni kastil ini pergi?
Apa yang kaukira bahwa kesadaran itu bukanlah sekadar preferensi artistik, melainkan deklarasi ontologis dari mana engkau dilahirkan.
Siapa yang runtuh, siapa yang terlahir kembali?
Siapa yang bertahan, siapa yang menyembuhkan?
Siapa yang menghakimi, siapa yang menampung?
Puisi memberi kita ruang untuk bernafas, dan kata-kata adalah udara yang mengisinya dengan makna.
Jadi simbol-simbol yang kaucatat itu bukanlah figur pasif serupa boneka.
Mereka adalah mekanisme korektif spiritual-psikologis yang memunculkan dirinya tanpa mengenakan topeng.
Aku menyebutnya keniscayaan.
Sebab engkau bukanlah syuhada.
Bukanlah korban ketidakberdayaan.
Bukanlah tubuh tanpa bayangan.
Engkau adalah integrasi dan transedensi.
Jika anima itu adalah pusat gravitasi, maka aku dan kamu adalah orbit.

“Orcas and some other large whales have spindle neurons in their brains. These are cells that process emotion humans thought existed only in apes and us. Spindle neurons have been called the cells that make us human. They're the part of the brain that deals with complex emotions like love, guilt, grief and even embarrassment. Since these are the cells that allow us to feel deeply, isn't it likely they do the same for orcas?”

“Orchard stores advertising cherries and apples, fresh baked goods, gifts appeared along the road. Some promised the best cider donuts or cherry pie, others had outdoor activities where children could burn off some energy, and yet others offered to let you pick your own cherries when the season started. As they approached a store offering a wide selection of samples, Isaac pulled into the parking lot. It seemed like a good time to stretch their legs and grab a snack at the same time.
"Let's see what we've gotten ourselves into, Barracuda," Isaac said.
He stepped onto the gravel parking lot, the rocks shifting under his flip-flops. Minivans, SUVs, and cars, many bearing out-of-state plates, filled the lot. Inside the store, freezers contained frozen cherries, apple juice from last season, and pies. Fresh baked goods lined shelves, and quippy signs hung from the walls that said things like IF I HAD KNOWN GRANDKIDS WERE SO MUCH FUN, I WOULD HAVE HAD THEM FIRST and I ENJOY A GLASS OF WINE EACH NIGHT FOR THE HEALTH BENEFITS. THE REST ARE FOR MY WITTY COMEBACKS AND FLAWLESS DANCE MOVES. Bass slid his hand into Isaac's as they walked around the store, staying close to him as they sampled pretzels with cherry-studded dips and homemade jams. A café sold freshly roasted Door County-brand coffee and cherry sodas made with Door County cherry juice.
In the bakery area, Isaac picked up a container of apple turnovers still warm from the oven- they would be a tasty breakfast in their motel room tomorrow.”

“Orchestras have become used to the emphasis on the separation of layers, of the ultimate precision and clarity.”
“Orchestras have often been used to conjure up the natural world: Swans, sharks, trout, but not, as far as I know, the often maligned jellyfish.”
“Orchestras only need to be sworn at, and a German is consequently at an advantage with them, as English profanity, except in America, has not gone beyond a limited technology of perdition.”
