My Vortex of Chaos
On a daily basis I come across a multitude of random things, images, literature, art & poetry that I find to be mostly wonderful.

Let men tremble to win the hand of woman, unless they win along with it the utmost passion of her heart! Else it may be their miserable fortune, when some mightier touch than their own may have awakened all her sensibilities, to be reproached even for the calm content, the marble image of happiness, which they will have imposed upon her as the warm reality. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne,The Scarlet Letter~

'Twould ease -- a Butterfly -- by Emily Dickinson
'Twould ease -- a Butterfly --
Elate -- a Bee --
Thou'rt neither --
Neither -- thy capacity --
But, Blossom, were I,
I would rather be
Thy moment
Than a Bee's Eternity --
Content of fading
Is enough for me --
Fade I unto Divinity --
And Dying -- Lifetime --
Ample as the Eye --
Her least attention raise on me --
"When I lay with you, I could stay there, close my eyes.
Feel you here forever, you and me together, nothing gets better.
But theres a side to you, that I never knew, never knew.
All the things you would say, they were never true, never true.
And the games you would play, you would always win, always win."
"I set fire to the rain..."
I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!
Dr. Seuss
I can read in red. I can read in blue.
I can read in pickle color too.
I can read in bed, and in purple. and in brown.
I can read in a circle and upside down!
I can read with my left eye. I can read with my right.
I can read Mississippi with my eyes shut tight!
There are so many things you can learn about.
But…you'll miss the best things
If you keep your eyes shut.
The more that you read, the more things you will know
The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
If you read with your eyes shut you're likely to find
That the place where you're going is far, far behind
SO…that's why I tell you to keep your eyes wide.
Keep them wide open…at least on one side.

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling) i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you here is the
deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the
root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a
tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can
hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping
the stars apart i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

I don't want to fall asleep.
Not at night anyway.
I like the night.
Reminding me of you.
Of us.
I don't want to fall asleep at night.
Every time I do, there is a day at the other end.
I don't want to see the harsh light daytime brings.
Too many details revealed.
You'll never know.
I'll never say.
It kills me how easily you walked away.
Not at night anyway.
I like the night.
Reminding me of you.
Of us.
I don't want to fall asleep at night.
Every time I do, there is a day at the other end.
I don't want to see the harsh light daytime brings.
Too many details revealed.
You'll never know.
I'll never say.
It kills me how easily you walked away.
