As One Listens To The Rain

Listen to me as one listens to the rain,

not attentive, not distracted,

light footsteps, thin drizzle,

water that is air, air that is time,

the day is still leaving,

the night has yet to arrive,

figurations of mist

at the turn of the corner,

figurations of time

at the bend in this pause,

listen to me as one listens to the rain,

without listening, hear what I say

with eyes open inward, asleep

with all five senses awake,

it’s raining, light footsteps, a murmur of syllables,

air and water, words with no weight:

What we are and are,

the days and years, this moment,

weightless time and heavy sorrow,

listen to me as one listens to the rain,

wet asphalt is shining,

steam rises and walks away,

night unfolds and looks at me,

you are you and your body of steam,

you and your face of night,

you and your hair, unhurried lightning,

you cross the street and enter my forehead,

footsteps of water across my eyes,

listen to me as one listens to the rain.  ― Octavio Paz

“Mun Ual ir Si’ira Nazæl” - 2020 The Great Sigil of Ual - Acrylic on Canvas. 4′ x 4′. - The largest and most involved work involving sigil-methodologies blended ceremoniously with the Sul’voth runes. Focusing on the central rune Ual, the rune of power and the absolute, this painting bears forces of divine knowledge and scripture of praise to the highest of the Suld’voruk.  Some full finished shots from my website.

[azielthe]

Sabemos que no hay más que un solo cielo inmenso, en el cual los astros se mueven y participan de la vida perpetua. Descubrimos, con él, el efecto infinito de la infinita causa y aprendemos a no buscar lejos de nosotros a la divinidad, que está dentro de nosotros y más próxima a nosotros que nosotros mismos. Angel J. Cappellett Prólogo para «Del infinito: el universo y los mundos» de Giordano Bruno.

The “Divine Comedy” by Ezio Anichini.

Dante Alighieri had a major influence on the career of his fellow citizen Ezio Anichini (1886-1948).

The Florentine artist – who collaborated with magazines such as “Almanacco italiano Bemporad”, “Il Giornalino della Domenica”, and “Scena illustrata” since the very early 1900s – often worked on portraits of the famous poet, represented scenes from his works, and illustrated postcards to celebrate the 600-year anniversary of Dante’s death, in 1921.
