Buildings to see
Inside the worlds largest airplane factory
some airplane factories are so large that clouds once formed inside them
When you learn that
a phenomenon is not unique
that it follows like a twin
that on the front
behooves the back
that it is part of a system
and is not by itself

Homeless
I am at the top in between two rocks. Many thousand feet below are sparse number of people. Soon its many people on horses fighting. In no time, a small pool is filled with them. One of them looks that there are people up here. It looks like a normal busy street. There were families hanging their clothes on ropes at unreachable heights on the multi-storeys where they use a stick to manipulate the rope before hanging clothes on it. It was time to leave. We left with what we had In emergency situation, I took somebody's sandals which I thought might be big for me, but were not. We all left. Earlier , in the neighbourhood my friend K was giving keynote lectures for her company. She had long hair. My dad realised he had about 4 bags of fruits. The last one was green grapes. and said that he had about 12K Rs. Before leaving, we had lost about half the people. some were burning in the plaster mummies of Mt Vesuvius shape and others only heads on the floor. We dont know who did it. When we are standing in a building, with many arches, front exposed, a jeep comes by 3 to 4 times. we try to stand in such a way that the cuboid columns will give us protection from fire. Then a men are two come out of it and impress upon us how the buildings around are huge newspaper ones and that we should leave.
6.30.15 dream. last night I saw the poem in the de Mezzo Il mare about the plaster mummies of Mt Vesuvius.

Swathe of Colour
Although I mean swatch of paint, I keep saying Swathe and that too often.
At Birds of a Feather, for collage were small scraps of painted sheets,
like parts of a triptych.
Colour applied such that the brush's passage shows.
The white it swept shows
The colour that leapt shows
The colour that slipped

How to Celebrate your Birthday kit
A Kit from Dictionary is
a set or collection of tools, supplies, instructional matter, etc., for a specific purpose
A Kit
replaces procrastination
of shopping
of making a shopping list
With all things in your reach
you have everything but to do
Have you ever seen a boring kit?
Even the Eyeglass repair kit
like an expert's bag contents
and purpose is magic
A Kit is fun
like a cupcake
instead of a cake
mini pennants
spell BIRTHDAY
just the same

The true spirit of anything
ADOMI 6 Foot Deluxe Fully Decorated Artificial Christmas Tree 10 Kinds Red/Gold Shatterproof Christmas Ornaments (141Pcs), Unlit
The true spirit of Christmas
First there is anything
Say Christmas
And then its meaning is lost
then you talk of its spirit
A spirit lamp is what I think of
so the fun is limited?
the oil/alcohol runs out
til you find new wells
big well to small well
you heart swells with joy
and when it doesnt no more
you go to the true spirit
like with law
you say letter of the law
intent of the law
why wasnt the intent
in the letter?
No contents says the
iphone
When we get the true spirit
do we go back to
anything
spirit of love
do you go back
to noun or verb
or meaning of it.
The True Spirit of Christmas
Christmas warms us up to the familiarity of the same 'The Christmas' movie run on TV every year. Well two years ago.. 'Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus'.. was a new Christmas story for me. If thats so in the movie world. Book world too has its new additions each year. last year it was 'The Wondrous Tree' by Gramps Doodlebug.
This year's 'The True Spirit of Christmas' by Dorothy Thurgood Manning, a picture book with rhyming verse will make the readers reflect on why is Christmas so wonderful time. Yes we receive gifts but more fun than receiving is giving. The little girl in the story realises the value of making gifts with her own hands. The illustrations have a pleasant feel. All the gifts involved in the book can be used as craft projects too. A popsicle stick jewellery box is a cool idea.. so are the rest of the gifts. So not only do we appreciate the spirit of Christmas but we get to implement and share the joy should we want to make those gifts.

Second Know
We first know things say by reading. But how do you internalize it so you can use it when you read it like you know it. What I call the second know. Recalling something like you know it already.
How kids learn planning
Bambo Nature Extra Large Pull Up Training Pants - by Bambo Nature
My toddler is helping me fetching a diaper for the newborn. Some times I need two quickly. I wonder when kids learn planning and think that 'If I give two diapers, then she can use it or not'. With wipes, she asks me how many are needed, since she cant get more or they'll get useless by drying out.
