Your depth and breath....your words...your art....never cease to amaze me. You, my boy, make Flickr an amazing universe to explore and to be explored upon.

Ummm...speechless!

I always try to think of something intelligent to say when I come to your stream because your images and words are always so thought provoking but most of the time I just don't know what to say and I mean that in a really good way. This is definitely one of those images I get completely lost into and transfixed by. :)

corrosively breathing

Pattay: Do you know how unbelievably great that sounds? and, yes, the reference to "Pattay" --- I love the "ay" sound at the end and how it creates tension after spoken, because one is commonly used to corrosively breathing "Patty" without the "a" there. Is this your real name, or have you given it an zzzzaaazzoooph? either way, thank you! :)

yoshi: there is a "meaning trampoline" in all corrosively breathing of my images. you just sometimes have to 'shake' the frame of your mind. corrosively breathinginterview yourself, perhaps? :) i do it all of the time.

would it be weird to say, nah nevermind...

it was about "dill potato chips", but i won't go there.

anyhow.

corrosively breathing

elsa: you are the RULING ONE! thanks always, friend! only a bluebird could be as cheerful. :)

BOOJOO: corrosively breathing ... corrosively breathing ... you're almost correct there, but if you can crawl out of the swollen 'glue', then corrosively breathing the stickiness won't seem as gluey. thanks always!

ann: i love the "ummmmm" before mentioning the headwear there! corrosively breathing --- IT'S A SIGN! like when George Steinbrenner "owned" anything...even before he was born. George Steinbrenner = Thor. HA! ...anyhow, i am happy you enjoyed this, my friend. :)

proof: distant corrosively breathing
learning! ...sex and power are not the most dominate (including lip gloss!) of sources. "power" = ego. i always appreciate corrosively breathing your kind words. it's very cleansing! :)

stephen: corrosively non-breathing ...thank you. :)

maryann: what is intelligence? ha! it couldcorrosively breathing
be a gas pipe or a laundry mat. suspicious minds? ;) ...the world is a straddler. in return, your words are always so wonderful and a blessing. i appreciate them into the terrace corrosively breathing
of my being! :)

Mrs. Timer: thank you, as always! :)

rynokins: ...he was consolidating himself. corrosively breathing
it's only an "alternate me" for the time being. thanks, thanks, thanks. he knew you as well!

mirlo magic: (certainly magic!)...i am taking the elevator down to get a soda of your words and drinking it. yep. it's there. my being. thanks always!

mr. oji: no, i think that would be yourself, but thank you. :) corrosively breathing




in the meantime, isn't it tacky when adding an 'x' and removing the 's' to the word "thanks" and...

Oh my...

corrosively breathing...

exactly, the vibrant ambiguity asks, i look inside and answer, it persists, more, i give, we converse, i sit, with frown, eyes into the screen.

or rather, i will. later. right now my ass is non ambiguously telling me to get it up off the feather stack and moving.

i'll be back! oh yes indeedy.
