"in the moment..."

unto a new venture:

redefining my visual impact

unto the world of exuberant crochet

manipulation

of innovative design concepts--ho rah!

The use of object and armature: a.k.a. ornamentation and embellishment/in that stimulating progression of in-the-moment confrontational tour-de-force;

let me entertain you and subject you to the works of my hands/translation of style:

ENVISION: carefree, unrestrained exploration

of the time that is and continuation onward...the moment...Open

My positive thought for the moment
ENGAGE

"add" or "subtract"

you, engage
stitch by stitch
line by line
alittle here alittle there
engage
in self
and you'll see

hidden cloaks of invisibility
they say to cover, maybe even to adorn my nakedness
but even within a translation of style
volumes are spoken
forth to engage: acceptance approval
and perhaps beneficial praise
for we all are need of
a covering, a mantle, a wrappping of
visibilty
a construction
of one's imagination

off the hook

MY MOM'S TALENT

My mom's got a special talent.

Her special talent is quite valiant.

She loves to crochet

all night and day.

I watch the needle fly

across the yellowish yarn sky.

She makes all clothes

and some of those

are made for us from styles that we've chose.

The way she uses the needle, so gallant.

Cause that's my mom's special talent.

African Urbanite in Crochet Glory

   You've got to be before you can do, and do before you can have.
Zig Ziglar

I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.

- Anthony Robbins -
