8/6/23

 Sunday, August 6, 2023

In bed  at ?, awake at 5:15, moved to BR recliner with bad back ache, Last Judgment mirror thoughts, purgatorial, up aat 5:45.  Let Lilly out.  Sky bright over the lake, marbled sky waiting for the sun's rays.    66℉, high of 74℉, AQI=66.  Wind E at 9 mph, 8-10/18.  Sunrise at 5:48, sunset at 8:08, 14+19.

The LJ Mirror.  Emily Dickinson

REMORSE is memory awake, / Her companies astir,— / A presence of departed acts / At window and at door.

Its past set down before the soul, / And lighted with a match, / Perusal to facilitate / Of its condensed despatch.

Remorse is cureless,—the disease / Not even God can heal; / For ’t is His institution, -- /  The complement of hell.

Quiet, unproductive day of rest.  Did some reading including some Anthony DiMello, two loads of laundry including bedding, did some glazing on the Jean-Michel Basquiat.  Last year at this time I did a 'circles' painting.  I've been meaning to try some other geometric pieces but never get around to it.  I should try it when my Muse is sleeping.
