Another Language – 9th November 2024

~ shaun tenzenmen

born indignant:
life, indeed surprised

the priest cried prophecy
I understood after I died

My first go at an erasure poem. Original text ‘The Other Language’ by Khalil Gibran. The picture is not as pretty as I would like but I do like the poem that came out of it.

Today I’m feeling:

Vague and blurred at the edges. My brain isn’t kicking into gear due to the hangover of the gummies from yesterday. I really don’t enjoy feeling like this, as I want a clear and motivated brain to inspire action within myself.

After an afternoon nap where I only managed many lucid dreams, I actually felt much better and ended up in my room playing guitar for an hour.

Health:

Physical: 7
Mental: 6

Today I’m grateful for:

Mee dropping me to his house to wait as everyone else still wanted to chat more. It was 22 degrees and I was feeling cold

The best thing about today was:

A pleasant evening meal with Baew and Mee. Though I didn’t join their conversation much, I was just absorbing the nice atmosphere of the restaurant and enjoyed the fish with young mango salad. Until the air temperature got too cold anyway.

Art took this picture of me and Piti hanging out this morning.

    1. Yes! I did this one a while ago and will try more but these take a lot more time than I usually have, especially to try and make them more attractive. I will try to emulate your methods in some way 👍

  2. They can take a while. You don’t need to emulate my methods at all! I link the words but if they’re falling down the page, you don’t have to. As long as you enjoy it, it doesn’t feel like it takes too much time.
