72 Cranes Project

Ok... This is the REAL beginning

I have 72 differently patterned pieces of paper. I'm making 72 origami cranes. 1 photo of each at a different location. This is number 1.

I thought i'd start with a simple ones. The crane is made with a soft creamy yellow paper with random calligraphic characters on it. The picture is on the ledge of a shop in Glasgow. The shop window has loads of sewing machines in it. I like the reflection of the people shopping.

Ok... got all the stuff ready.

Going to spend tonight on the preperations then phase 1 on Saturday.

An attempt at poetry

This is pretty dark, even for me.

The Chimera
Love is a terrible beast,
savage of tooth and claw.
It shows the pity of a lion to a lamb,
a spider to a fly.
Terrifying and hideous in its visage
it draws my eye like a moth to a candle flame.

Love is a terrible beast,
Cunning and without conscious.
It stalks the jungle my mind,
hiding in the shadows of memory.
Waiting to pounce on an unprepared thought,
ready to devour sense and logic.

Love is a terrible beast,
blacker than the brightest sun.
Yet i long for its razor blade embrace,
Its kiss of fire and ice.
A beast of legend that i seek to slay,
my own personal chimera.

The project starts on Saturday......

An attempt at a Song

I think i better start downloading the stuff in my head to the electronic world. This is a song i wrote a few years ago when the bees in my head were at war with a swarm of giant Japanese hornets. It helped my focus. Its the first song i wrote that I'm actually happy with. Here goes....

Unreqested Love Song
If i was a stone,
I'd bleed for you.
Ev'ry single day,
I breath because of you.
In every single way,
I want you.
More and more each day,
for you to be you
Just to be you.

If all the stars up in the sky meant i love you 1 million times.
There's not enough stars in the Milky Way or any other galaxy.
To represent the way i feel,
My love is true and strong and real,
It kills me more each day to realise,
Youre never gonna feel this way

If i was the grass,
i'd turn blue for you.
Anything you ask,
I will do.
No matter what the task,
I'm going to try.
Just to hear you laugh,
Or to see you smile,
if only for a while.

If all the stars up in the sky meant i love you 1 million times.

There's not enough stars in the Milky Way or any other galaxy.
To represent the way i feel,
My love is true and strong and real,
It kills me more each day to realise,
Youre never gonna feel this way

If you where a cause,
I'd fight for you.
If your feeling lost,
I'd be a light to guide you.
I'll be anything,
Anything you want me too.
You are like the sun,
And im in night without you,
My skies are never blue.
 
If all the stars up in the sky meant i love you 1 million times.

There's not enough stars in the Milky Way or any other galaxy.
To represent the way i feel,
My love is true and strong and real,
It kills me more each day to realise,
Youre never gonna feel this way

If all the stars up in the sky meant i love you 1 million times.

There's not enough stars in the Milky Way,
Or any other galaxy.
To represent the way i feel,
My love is true and strong and real,
It kills me more each day to realise,
Youre never gonna feel this way

Perhaps one day you may start to feel,
begin to feel this way.
