And then it was time to part with the silence, the vast space and the stunningly untouched landscapes. Suddenly we found ourselves in the kingdom of Technosaurus rex. Or maybe it rather was a Gigantosaurus nekrophilus maximus. Hard to say from the distance and I ddin’t feel like getting closer to those beasts. What a change, what a contrast. And yet I could not deny that I was fascinated by these giraffelike creatures.
There are those moments and encounters with the world, when the visual world turns into music, a hymn, a sonata in G minor, an epic choral with bells and fanfares… or just a self-forgotten hummed love song.
And sometimes it feels like there is a process of synesthesia between such a tune and the impressionistic work of Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Cézanne…
I truly love to sit or stand still in those moments and dive deeply into such scenes. Do you?
And now for something completely different… a Me(a)taphor.
In memoriam Janet, Brad, Frank N. Furter, Riff Raff, Magenta and many more.
In the velvet darkness
Of the blackest night
Burning bright,
there’s a guiding star
No matter what, or who you are
There’s a light
(Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light
(Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light
In the darkness of everybody’s life
The darkness must go
Down the river of night’s dreaming
Flow morpheus slow
Let the sun and light come streaming
Into my life, into my life
There’s a light
(Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light
(Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light
In the darkness of everybody’s life
