virtuosity, has been a word that I have been mulling over for days....not knowing until last night it means skillfull.
I also like that it is a five sylablle word
.
soon at work and now in thinking I have to paint an ombre style on walls starting with black and fading down to white. This is a challenge for me because I am not much of a blender with paint. I pretty much keep it clean and solid with two coats....getting good coverge, and keeping off the floors, baseboard and furniture. So going out of the box with creating a smooth flow with glaze is having myself on the edge. I can always say no to this part of the addition job, but I want to atleast try to create.
I am not a fan of sports..I was reading with eyes wide open some short stories on mentions a chicago bear hat. funny how the mind thinks. not so funny to spend years trying to understand how someone elses mind thinks....can be crazy making.
Not much of an illumined poetry piece.
I just needed to haiku my new words virtuosity, and ombre.
I learned ombre also connotates a 15th ? century game with three players with I think 40 cards....
most stuff from the renaissance...is beautiful...as in baroce music...art....attire... |

now I am without a job.
this thought has created mental panic.
today am am looking to create steps to define a career.
before I do that I wanted to express some thoughts on food/local grocery store.
I was wondering about other local markets...like what do you see and where do you buy food. what would it look like in costa rica, japan, norway, in the middle of timbuktu...
without turning pessimistic
I walk into the local store here(corporate chain)
and am laughing at the oddity of a large
psuedo wall of bright orange bags of Doritos...
NFL display....
I spiral down into thoughts of just how Doritos get their color-
it certainly cannot be good for the body...
and at that point
I found myself longing to be more in an open air market-
buying produce/food from locals..
maybe miniture banannas(like I have eaten in Hawaii)
bloodfruit
kiwi
avocados
most juciy oranges-plucked right from the neighbors tree...that very morning.
and I am appalled and laughing about the wall of doritos.
at this store there is a produce and there is even a small area of organic......so there are other choices.....
but it seems that the dominant palate is
artificial orange colored powdering called nacho.
and now I am sad
because I am thinking of a wall of ayp-
thoughts, words, practise, and no idea of what"it" will bring or not bring to me.
same feeling of choosing a career and going back to school-
the idea of failure is very real and the feelings.
makes one want to pull the covers over the head and deal with it tommorrow-
but I have already been doing that and it is not making a practise worth keeping.
