RED ROSES, BLACK PEBBLE

But my friend what then is your

meaning now that you are gone?

The signifier and the signified - like

the sign and its cross - have met the

void now of a certain type of silence.

Something like an Easter approaches,

with its pagan rites of new birth and

growth, rabbits and eggs, a resurgence

of new born Man. Total rubbish, to be

sure, yes, but how so many enjoy the

blood : the blood of passion like the 

blood-red glow of roses  -  sacred roses,

carried on high  -  and ultimately lost.

-

For what other way does the fat wallet

of humankind's ways justify its dollars? 

Always, always, the outside and the

...the celestial signifyings of moon and

stars and Heaven and Life - such a

programmed course 'midst which 

we are so lost.
