Waiting Lost on the Salt Sea Shore

Sunday, July 21st, 2019

Waiting lost on the salt sea shore

Waiting lost like never before 

Locked in time and locked in space

 Waiting with unforgiven grace 



Listening lost on the salt sea shore

Listening lost like never before 

Birds do sweep and birds do swoop 

Waiting for the death time coup



Looking lost on the salt sea shore

Looking lost like never before 

Rocks that crumble and mud that seeps

 Waiting for the one that weeps 



Crying lost on the salt sea shore 

Crying lost like never before 

Tears will come and tears will flow

 Waiting for that under toe 



Being lost on the salt sea shore

 Being lost like never before

Skirts that flutter and skirts that swish 

Waiting for her eternal wish

Homeless Moon

Sunday, July 21st, 2019

The street loomed in the silver light
Or rather it lurched as it luminesced
Moon beams reflected a muted rainbow
Just at the edge of perception
A reflection of its own subtle glory
Hung distorted in the river’s ripples

A lonely figure wrapped in trench coat
With broken seams jerked like a lost puppet
Caught on every word and miss-remembered cues
A hope burned within the creature
That one of the candescent windows
Would open and beckon them in

Frost began to rim the moon
Diffusing the light to a crystal shimmer
Spreading out and clogging in the air
With ice that hurt the lungs to breathe
The light now was nothing but glitter
Obscuring the murder of Unknown

Moon Art Blast-Off

Saturday, July 20th, 2019

My Dad died half way through writing his moon memory – I have his notes and I know where it was going – but I can’t know all the detail, he used to wake me up to see shooting stars and stare at the moon, he bought me second hand books with forewords from Carl Sagan

My dad offered to look after my kids so I could study space rocks but other life crud got in the way – but he was willing to do that and did do that for my PGCert he thought I was more intelligent than him but I wasn’t I just got to stay at school

My dad told me stories and made up adventures, the moon has so many tales and I wish to tell you all of them as well and though we all look to the sky and see the same moon – for each and everyone of us it is something different, unique and personal

I hope to show these myriad of moons with the Moon Art Blast-Off and the longer duration sci-art projects such as the Moon Mega Make, there will be a lot of arty mooness over the next 24 or more hours

Lastly here is my dad as a little boy dressed resplendent in his favourite cosplay of the day – he is an astronaut before they were a reality – it’s time for some #moonmania and beyond
