Been feeling like poo today, it's that marvelous time of the month again when all I'm capable of is curling up in a ball under a fluffy blanket, what a joy it is to be a women! Shouldn't complain though, I feel the ups and downs of the menstrual cycle has a certain balancing effect, I've tried to do without it before by going on the pill and found it has completely fucked me up, it's the only time I ever suffered from depression and soon as I came off it I was fine. I've spoken to other women who has also experienced this too. It's good to be in cycle with the moon. Doesn't do much for my temper though, I can go from being totally calm to a complete door slamming, plate smashing rage within two seconds flat, and then back again, just experiennced one of these little turns and now have to apologise to my boyfriend.... all is well again, the chicken is in the oven and we're all set for a cosy dinner and a good film. 'Pillow Talk' is on tv tonight it's one of my favourite Sunday afternoon films although I have never seen the end, we have been plagued with shit video recorders for years, it's almost became funny but you would get half way through a film and it would fuck up, this happened so many times until we finally got a DVD recorder. We can now actually have a relaxed viewing wwith settled nerves without the fear of missing the end. Talking of films I went to see the new Harry Potter last night and it was fabulous, it is so magical, the sets are brilliantly imaginative and the story goes from being really charming to seriously scary, I would definately recommend it.
Anyway I came here to post up a poem I wrote a little while ago. My life has taken an enlightening turn at the moment and I'm finding it all quite thrilling. With the help of Carl Jung's theories, my blogging experiences including 'The boy who heard music' blog and some of the blogs I have come to through that, I have come to a better understanding of some of the ideas/theories I that have been a running theme through my life for the past ten years. Things have just been coming together. I'll try and write about my experiences, but it's difficult to know where to start, it's all been a long time coming. This is a poem I wrote in the summer, it was inspired by a day I spent at ' Arbour Low' a stone circle in Derbyshire (near Youlgreave) it's a very powerful place. The poem is called 'Air'. I'm working on writing a poem each for 'Earth', 'Fire', and 'Water'. Almost there with Earth just need to sit down and write it, but for now here is 'Air'.

AIR
Breeze sweep through,
Disintintegrate matter,
Course through body,
Spill through being,
Purifying air,
Clarify this gossamer embodiment,
Cleanse this flimsy mortal frame,
Expose, impart, affirm,
my union with the all-pervading,
the all emcompassing Universe.
