Liquid Turquoise: Galerie de Glaces at Versailles


Each time
the ladle
is dipped
in,

she melts
back into
herself in
the mold,

She is my
matrix, my
opalescent
Dominion

Ignis Algir,
very powerful
fire!


Pyr
Ethos


hotter content
of the ladle

blending two
together,
melting raw
material.

Her anxiety
pours, the
more I feed

ladlefuls of
Liquid Turquoise

I pour out her
"woman in a boat."

Concentric
rippling effect

mold being
filled from
the same
ladle.

Glass-making
of ancient time,

Pliny the Elder

"sand does not
shine until it has
been washed
by sea, removing
its impurities," thus
discovered glass.

The duality of its
nature, hard and
beautiful, but
fragile.

Idea of its maker,
tongue of flame,
I pour out her
"woman in a boat."

Her anxiety pours,
the more I feed.

Bead of my desire

Vessel

Mirror

Barometer

I fuse her at
high temp,

skim and cool
her, then add
the erotic substances
for her brilliance

to line the
Galerie de Glaces
at Versailles,

she melts
back into
herself in
the mold.

Does Liquid
Turquoise
have an
effect on
you?

Thnx sis, I found this very sensual, very erotic and very romantic. I agree with Sandie and Eileen, you are just a fountain of creativeness. I can see the woman in you flow out each time I read something from you. She flows out like molten glass just waiting to be formed. I love the way you write sis. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, jou to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Ss ever Sage you dazzle with inventiveness and ingenuity, as your pour your liquid offerings and entreaties before our bemused eyes
This has the startling effect of a young neophyte staggered by the craftsmanship of his or her master
Liquid Turquoise takes you on a sea borne journey to Atlantis and beyond !

Oooo, yes... love the visual - both colour and viscosity. Reminds me of my fascination with molten wax. Same qualities. Love the repetition of "Her anxiety pours, the more I feed" and the concepts about how and when sand shines and the duality of the nature of such glass. For me, a poem within a poem starts at "Bead of my desire"; the flute to the gestalt of the stem, perhaps. Elegant and searing fluidity in this sequence of writes, Sage; each one swash-buckling in its way... like a blade through silk! TY Kate xx
