Sometimes I wonder; Do I paint my own retina to fall asleep - and wake up - to...?

"When the soul wishes to experience something she throws an image of the experience out before her and enters into her own image."

Buzzard's Farewell

One morning - getting close to Autumn - I encountered a dead buzzard ... on the ground ... it was as if it just landed...perfect.... wings spread out.... no damage .... but the most amazing thing was its' eyes ....closed... and I saw the eyelids... covered in the finest tiny white feathers...

And I wondered ... what do I do?
I stared ... for a long time... and I did nothing.
The next morning I came back to the same spot ... and the buzzard was gone! Disappeared! Not even a feather left!
An then I painted .... 'The Buzzard's Farewell'
