This has to be low Monday, the euphoria generated by our Successful Games and Disability Enlightenment, is bouncing off a blank canvass. What on earth are we going to do without 2012? Who and what will fill the gap?

Are we all motivated to go for lives a bit more meaningful? And are we going to remain friends and volunteers?

Shongololo rail tours

Shongololo. Half formed

images creep around

the edges of my brain,

ululating Shongololo

to the rhythm of the track;

in killing heat and wasteland

where the dry air spills into

my open, empty lungs

the millipede of sound

rolls out into the future.

 

I still struggle with organising this site. Sometimes I think I’m on the way to a look, a functionality that suits me. Then I get something wrong and I’m lost.

I like the idea of touring Shongololo by train, how clever of my cookies to spot that.

Eclipse 120 garden tables

might just mean putting them in the shade

of vampires, subclipse of the bigger

picture; or positioned under one

twenty Scottish Widow umbrellas

ready to unfurl; to eclpise their

jagged moons over summer sunshine

garden tables; theirs a welcome shadow.

 

Today’s ad is certainly seasonal, umbrellas and sunshine both featuring promenently in my August life! This ad lark could be an endless project, but I hope somehow along the way, to draw some conclusions or make a few interesting observations.

some kind of revenge.

I wrote this last week (07/08/2012), but it somehow feels more fun than today’s:

small garden sheds

I’m not quite sure what triggered the ad, but I do actually find garden sheds fascinating.

I wish I had a not too small one with a work bench and shelves of mysterious treasures.

yes, we’ve seen him;

here he comes again.

Now that Cookie Crumbs evolves on its own page it will of course appear up-side down to … well probably everyone bar me. As a work-in-progress, and for my sanity, it needs to read chronologically top down, unlike these posts; so it may or may not confuse people when I say that on the Cookie Crumbs page there are now a weeks worth of Crumbs to peruse.

This may prove unworkable, but I do like a challenge

Embroidered Bronte Jacket

and tie, and would that be a

novel work to keep me warm?

Or would it be frippery?

Useless against the roaring

onslaught of whuthering winds.

The work of delicate hands

or machine made, computer

generated fiction?

These are the first words of a work-in-progress, which, against all advice, I am persisting in attempting to create online. Daily I am delivered of a selection of topics variously linked to the subjects of my emails. It seems a shame to waste these crumbs, these cookie assesments of my e-life, so the work-in-progress is to present my own creative take on them…Cookie Crumbs
