Heron Moksha Her hallowed Killing grounds sprawl amid Teeming shallows, pools and Sumps. Her Neck-bend sinew Erupts into arid Dart of ritual impalement: Small fry go head first; Eels are dashed against Rocks or bill-skewered; Birds, ducklings, voles - Drowned, bludgeoned, Swallowed whole, with Fur, bone and ungual husk Spewed and set aside as Sacral gem-pellets. Her Neck-bend sinew: Pinecone composite of Trinity-seven primes; Twenty-one cervical vertebrae Retracted in flight - Twenty-one skulls Knotted into Dark Mother Choker. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026

Metaxu* Cleave that cuts and binds - Bob-cut categorical imperative Cloaking fragile beauty in Stogie smoke and worker slacks. Ascetic insurgent Burning herself on campfires; Mission-eager poor shot – too Nearsighted to be safe around Guns, but Keen-sighted enough to grasp the Connecting distance that Begets our wretched lot. Fallen bodies, Corrupted souls: Blind walls that keep a Captive World - a Captive God - Apart and in Touch. Perforce unholy Perforce disgraced – to be Created at all, We must become what God is not. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026 * Greek: μεταξύ, literally “between” – a concept originating in Platonic thought, embodied here in the life and work of French philosopher and mystic, Simone Weil (1909-1943)
Have a good week @rfsmith.bsky.social!

A single wild pink rose on her bush. It’s dark and the petals and foliage are softly lit. A few petals are on the ground, soft focussed in the shadows.
Summer memory
A small Ontario lake. Drift wood breaks and is perfectly reflected in the still waters. Mist softens the marsh and woodlands along the opposite shore.
Delicate wild grasses in blue. A snowy March roadside scene.
Wicker Man Sequel II: Afterlife, 1974 He goes quietly - Too quietly, in fact. Eyes downcast, he is sullen, Resigned, Relieved. No struggle, No frenzied pleas, No execrations, No desperate screams - Even the animals Fall silent. Such an anticlimax, some Dare say. We are leaderless. Later that year, a Plummy-voiced fugitive with Caddish moustache offers to be Our Laird. But we’re a religious people - We don’t do murder here, and won’t Countenance spouse killers. And, to Be honest, we’re sick of the Notoriety. In fact, everything becomes an Anticlimax: the Unrelenting waves of Orgy, Feasting, Carousing, Innuendo, Bawdy song, Ritual mirth, Communal rejoicing. We seek the sublime Thrill of transgression – that Dire-edged, dark delight made Keener by the dread of Censure and chastisement. Our Christian neighbours revel in it: Shame-filled, knee-trembler sex in barns, Caves, cubicles, hallways, back alleys; Shebeens, whisky bothies, Gambling dens – skulking, winking Furtively at bored menfolk on the Sabbath; Malicious gossip about the Manse family. As if divining our silent prayer, a large Consignment of oatcakes arrives from a Nearby island. Brittle, friable biscuits – Hebridean fortune cookies Revealing Aphoristic Bible Quotes that promise Hellfire and damnation with a Faint chance of Salvation. We shudder in Anticipation. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2025

Painting: An abstract landscape painted in watercolor and ink; predominant colors are dark brown and mauve. The foreground consists of a hilly area; some scrubby trees or shrubs rise from the land in the middle distance, silhouetted against light at the horizon. The sky is painted in dramatic swirls of color.

Photo: A black-and-white, ICM shot of a huge flock of blackbirds flying low to the ground, crossing a stream. The air appears thick with birds and water spray. This scene appears in front of a line of bare trees marking the edge of a wooded area. The entire scene is shot at close-to-medium range to highlight the intensity of the flock’s movement; only the trunks of the closest background trees are visible.

(Reposting, due to tag issues yesterday)
Painting: A mixed media abstract landscape on an unnaturally greenish background; land is arranged in a somewhat circular formation, and a bare tree appears upper left. The entire painting is covered with random marks, creating visual texture.
