I spent an hour last night curled up in a corner in the pitch darkness of the helideck, head upturned, facing the sky, utterly bewitched. The countless stars, poles apart from the anonymous celestial pinpricks that they're reduced to in a city, here, so bold, so proud, so assertive, so... there! Right there! In the sky, in your eyes, your ears, creeping into your skin. Spangles in your mind, and tears in your eyes.Thursday, July 12, 2007

:) I thought u weren't allowed to go there at night?
Oh, I am. I asked :) Was just asked to "be careful".
There is something about those stars and sea in the night that makes me sad. A good sad, if you know what I mean.
You know I do! :)
And, likewise.
