We drove by in a big tourist busI was tired and sleepy
from sneaking back into the hotel
at dawn
after dancing the night away
in Costa Del Sol
I was bored
with all the tourist sites
until we came across
Hunderwasser House
I rubbed the dreams
from my adolescent eyes
and felt that my life
belonged in that house
excitement
crept
through me
as i looked up
wondering what was behind the windows
like looking into
a loved ones eyes
a similar familiarity
of quite contentment
and my heart sank
as we drove away
19 years later
I feel the same
it is still my dream house
still curvy, moving
moaning with
pleasure
growing, organic
sparkling, shiny
a fairytale castle
for an off-beat princess

may in confess something? part of me will forever be invested in him. i'm not proud of it, then again i an't hampered by it either.

Im in durban at the moment...where i live and have stayed put since 2000...apart from the odd expedition.
lived in aarhus for 16 years, from 1978...got back here in 1992 and spent the odd year there...but when i decided to have my son, i thought it unfair to bring him up like the gypsy i am, so i stayed here in my country of birth.
it would be desturbing if were not invested in a man u 'once' loved...
i choose to believe that love is what seperates us from animals -except from penguins and black widows.
love and warm thoughts from sunny south africa
where are you...oh pretty one?
offbeat princess! interesting.
i don't think i've ever given at a thought but i think it's time to ponder this question. two.
1. why did i start a blog?
2. why do i keep on blogging?
so what are your answers? maybe i should make this into a meme. as soon as i figure out how to do it.
OMG SO CUTE!
And I JUST went to HundertwasserHaus a little over a week ago! Most beautiful house I ever did see..
dear jerry
i have been busy working on my paintings and organising for a profile/interview on my work and me.
dear hobo
I have always kept diaries (like our beloved Anais) so it was just a natural extension to carry on through blogging. I came across blogging quite late, thru a friend who suggested i start one of my own. I guess it feeds my compulsive narcissistic nature and need to vent.
and my love for writing, expression, communication etc.
I keep blogging because i enjoy it and have connected to some fantastic people...like you.
It’s a kinship thing, a voyeuristic compulsion, another gateway into the minds and hearts of others and my self.
I am often inspired and like reading what goes on in other peoples lives...found that its strange but many of those i have connected with r from India.
I have never really had puka Indian friends before. and i have not sought them out...its just something that kinda happened...giving me insight into a part of my life that i have not had.
-other than that old friends from DK and other places have found me via my blog...and its been pretty cool to reconnect.
Dear poetry journal,
thank you...i dont know why i chose to write it in poetry format, when its not a poem, just a bit of rambling...i just did.
dear juice
wow! what a coincidence.
hunderwasser is an amazing artist an architect. he had some quite radical ideas and thoughts...most noteworthy of all is that he lived his life accordingly.
Did u travel alone? if so, u damn courageous...dont know if i could do it.
Ah! there you are :)
Had not bookmarked you, so I couldnt find my way back. and you have chosen not to share your blogger profile now? Anyways, glad to be back.
dear sola
nice to have u back.
i checked my settings and it says it is set to allow my profile to be viewed by all, though i realize it is not happening...
thanks for letting me know.
HELP...anybody?
