#Avent2024 – 12. Sibylle

De marbre elle accueillait à l'orée du tunnel
Seuil d'un périple dans les mondes souterrains
Toisant l'amateur d'art de son port solennel
Mais le tranquillisant d'un oracle serein

La Sibylle d'Érythrée, Jean-Jacques Caffieri, 1759 — Marbre — Musée du Louvre, Paris.

Küß mich! / Kiss Me!

Once upon a time, on a quiet summer's evening an old man was rowing an old boat across an ancient lake.
A little frog jumped up onto the end of the boat, and the frog said to the old man:
"Old man, if you kiss me, I will turn into a beautiful young princess and you can do whatever you want with me."
And the old man smiled at the frog and kept on rowing his old boat across the ancient lake.
And the frog said again:
"Old man, if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful young princess and you can do whatever you want with me."
And the old man smiled and looked at the frog and carried on rowing his old boat across the ancient lake.

And there was a long silence while the guitar played.

Man in a Boat

The frog said to the old man: "Old man, why won't you kiss me?"
The old man looked at the frog and stopped rowing his old boat across the ancient lake, put his hands in the air and shrugged his shoulders and said: "At my age I'd rather have a talking frog."

For as long as I could remember, the image of everyone needed to be artistically questioned. Time was subjective to those of a constant, my reality isn’t that of what others perceive, outside of my own generics, the negativity or general empathy of a loved one. Whom we are today isn’t possible for the person of tomorrow, or our existing lives, we have retorted from. Ideology helps to retain my philosophy on ethics and other wisdom, creativity is best served with a subjective mind. Sincerity is the quest - to redefine my tomorrow. #coffee #art #manufacturing #mindful honesty is having the ability to be subjective or not. To be subjective.
