I fell on the earth
& raped the snow
I got married to life
& breathed with my marrow
I saw young dancers
I am meat & need fuel
Need the whorey glimmer of tears
in women, all ages
Laughter sandwich, fuel
for the lunch of meat minds
Now damn you, dance
Now dance
or die sleek & fat in your
reeking seat, still
buckled for flight

My motto:
If you can't find what you're looking for out there, make it yourself.

Tonight I went with some friends to see a special screening of Wuthering Heights. Samuel Goldwyn Jr was there and added some special insight into the making of this movie. He also said that this was his father's favorite movie and that his father hoped he would be remembered for this movie in particular as his legacy. Of course, I've seen the movie before, many times, but never on the big screen. So here I am, falling in love again with Laurence Olivier. His face was smoldering, larger than life, those eyes, that hair, those lips, yikes! Oh Heathcliff! Too hot to handle. No wonder Vivien Leigh went mad. I'd of lost it too!

My favorite dancer...this is one of the first portraits I ever painted. It was of Rudolf Nureyev.



I recommend this book. It's a fascinating biography.
