sara_nia's RECommendations

BURNING dAN brightly embodied that bold beastly bliss sometimes referred to as "the creative spirit." He was my chief collaborator on the foundational incarnations of hitRECord.org over the years and continues to inspire us ever the more. He would absolutely positively insist that we not let this bad news deter us on our collective mission. That said, I might not feel up to it for a little while. Watching this community blossom into what it has become never ceased to amaze him and me. We would regularly marvel at it and high five. Thank you all for that. There he is now pouring heaping hollowed watermelons full of love over each and every one of us. Let's celebrate him, he's fucking awesome: http://www.hitrecord.org/records/234697 See you real soon, thanks again... <3 |

Elaine Elizabeth Belz NIGHTCAP I’ve turned the dead-bolt and fastened the chain to lock the night outside; but in my brain, the night’s expanse and quiet amplify each sentiment – then each sentiment drizzles down and freezes on the pavement, While the moon, all secure in her impenetrable halo keeps watch by the light of her cold, holy glow. I’ve switched on all the lights and put on soothing music to chase away the emptiness, but by some trick, the light obscures my vision, and silence shrouds the song, which leaves me nothing in this waking sleep to move the hours along. So the moon rolls over, stretches out her silvery beams in a shimmering yawn, and bids me pleasant dreams. Too tired to even think of dreaming, I reply with a blank stare, and almost feel the melancholy borne in on clean night air that urges me to yield to its Socratic care-of-soul – but true to habit, I deny that I could ever become whole. Now the moon has wrapped herself again inside her light, covered herself with a cloud, and left me to my night. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This poem is from my 1997 book, _Deciphering Scars_. It may end up elsewhere too, but I'm putting it up here initially for the "Luna Veneficus" collab on moon-related/moon-inspired art. I actually have a lot of moon-related poems, I think because of my fascination with "white space", and the moon casts a very white light. Anyway, in this poem, the moon is a rather bored observer of and commentator on the persona's mental states. It's entirely possible I was both the moon and the persona when I wrote it, one night after coming home from work (past 4 am) on a rainy/freezing rain kind of moonlit night. |

Strengthen sit bones Soul slides Into serenity Step into downward dog Dive into dreamlike demeanor Sink into submission Give into "peaceful being" Enter empty Leave loose Relaxed Restless no more Rejuvenated Waiting to return For more Make the most Of this moment Listen to your breath Be one with your consciousness Controlled by nothing Calm now |

I'm happy when such things happen. I've found this wonderful footage http://www.archive.org/details/TouchofM1961while looking for resources for another video and thought this one would be perfect for Malicore's tiny song)
Still not entirely happy with this...it feels kinda random, not coherent yet.
It is a video set to the reading of Guy de Maupassant's poem "Désirs"...thank you to AmbreNotAmber for bringing it to my attention!
I used lots of resources and I hope I got them all, but if not please let me know.
Sorry for the poor quality recording....I really need to get some better equipment :-/
If anyone has any tips on how to make this better or wants to put their own spin on it, it would be greatly appreciated!
