Halloween

Hey little dreamer's eyes open and staring up at me
Oh little lonely eyes open and radiant
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come I'll take your soul
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come and I won't go

Darlin' dreamin in the night
Shadows on the windows
Lead oh and everyone go
Well leave me on the night
I will give you lightning
I will not relinquish light

Oh little dreamer eyes open and raving here
Wait until I come and see you little girl
When we come I'll leave with you too
When we come I'll let you come low
Hey we'll leave it all behind
Oh and then the nightmares
I'll fill them in good time
Oh they will seat your mind
When the light hits
And you maybe'll ask me

Why do you run around here
Why do you come inside of me
Why does it rip me out in dream
Why then why then watch this little fuck

Going away

Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely love
Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely love

Halloween
Carry on
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all

And in this dream
Tell us are you satisfied with fucking

Don't walk away
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
I'm talking to you

Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love this I'll tame you
Love Love Love Love this not me here
Love Lov eLove Love him up to you

Be patient

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves.
Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be
given you because you would not be able
to live them. And the point is to live everything.
Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then
gradually, without noticing it, live along some
distant day into the answers.

Rainer Maria Rilke, Letter to a Young Poet

"That's what it was like to be alive. To move about in a cloud of ignorance; to go up and down trampling on the feelings of those...of those about you. To spend and waste time as though you had a million years. To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another. Now you know - that's the happy existence you wanted to go back to. Ignorance and blindness. - Simon Stimson, "Our Town"

Some other new ones

Back To You
Toward Those Isles Of Yours



This is the piece that inspired Back to You, for the strong shadow on the building and the round shapes above. Georgia O'Keeffe's Patio Series.
And this inspired "Toward Those Isles". Georgia O'Keeffe's Sky with Flat White Cloud. I went with the colors and horizontal layout and just complicated issues.

Pelvis

Georgia O'Keeffe did a series of "Pelvis" paintings. These were paintings she did of bones found in the desert, which were held up to the sky, so the sky could be seen through the holes in the bones. They were very abstract, and without an explanation of what you were looking at, it was difficult to tell what you were seeing. The following two paintings are my interpretation of the Pelvis Series. These are gator skulls.
 Leave Me on Your Shores
 Where I Have Roots
 These are 2 from Georgia's series.
