a masquerade it is, all of it.....

I am not what i seem . Seeming is but a garment i wear. -Kahlil Gibran
The despicably true mound of poetry breathes its last sigh at these fecund words and walks on to a life without shame.
All of it , every word, every expression , all of it , a seamless travel into a phony progression of seeming? Well, yes.And its fine. I dont live like im afraid of it . Seeming is my possession and i am not ashamed of it. I use it and obey it , and defy it even if it has no rules to obey .I do not genuflect to it , as i know i can surpass it . And a garment doesnt cover one completely.....Revelation is just made arcane by the very act of seeming.
Clothes are a provocation to want to see a person naked.
so I am my garment .....
my surface , my skin
I am a melanin masquerade.

hi -
i like the way you have begun ... interesting use of language ... also the necessary dash of angst ... will watch and wonder how long your enthusiasm for blogging (a form of writing practice and more?) will survive!!
if you want to upload pictures download hello and picasa 2, then the going gets easier.
if you want to change the way your blog looks, got to Template, cut and paste your html code into dreamweaver and then play around with it and copy paste YOUR NEW CODE into the template ... see how it changes! (ps i havent done this yet but Naru tells me it's possible and I am sure going to try it out one of these days cos I am sick of my template. Ciao!
