The Metaxy

Neither gods nor beasts but participants. I live in a Maynard Dixon painting.

I’ll tell ya, friends: Few things in life are as profound as a strong sense of place. Nothing compares to possessing intimate knowledge of a specific spot on this Earth, a piece of the world that is yours, which belongs to you and, deeper still, to which you belong.

Who I am was formed here, in the land of the saguaro.

Here is my territory.
Here is my country.
Here is my patria.

Nice to have a few clouds back in the skies today

@CVSchuyler Growing up, I never even heard of them.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

Easy for me: wings. I cannot abide even the smell of them.
Now, if you were to remove wings from that list and replace it with saguaro fruit…now I’ve got a problem.

Which menu staple are you deleting?

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@CVSchuyler Indians used to pattern-dye baskets with it.

@morallawwithin Has to be engagement bait, no one is this idiotic.

@spindriftaz I’ll say this, though, I couldn’t begin to guess how good of a man I’d be if I had Wagner’s vision, talent, and drive.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

Listening to Parsifal in the night as I’ve often done for decades, it seems clear to me that whatever the man Wagner was, the artist Wagner was somehow in touch with the Divine. Blake said Milton was of the Devil’s party without knowing it. Maybe Wagner was in league with Heaven.

@stuffed Thank you

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

Things might get a little saguaro-heavy today, just so you know

@ARIZONA_HOLLY That & a ladder'll get you a good 20-24' or more

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

YES. I saw your flower. I suppose it’s nice, yes. What? Who says there’s anything wrong? I’m FINE. Ooh, look—are those ravens?

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@ARIZONA_HOLLY You can put a citrus puller on the end of your pool brush pole, is what I did.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@elle_srom Somewhat like prickly pear fruit but only mildly sweet. The seeds are sort of like chia seeds.

@hippojuicefilm "27-YEAR-OLD HOMELESS MOM" doesn't need the "MELESS MOM" part.
