twelve moons to rest up

After my first Kunlun workshop I was upstairs alone at Trunks house in LA(he was at the Kunlun party) and I was using his computer and a rat outside of Trunks door was literally boucing up and down. I had never seen anything like it. This rat was just freaking out boucing into the glass bottom part of the door. Was really cool.

A similar thing happened to Yoda's Dad's dog after we spent some time with them after the first Phoenix Kunlun workshop. This little dog was just bouncing up off the ground.

I don't know if it had anything to do with the Kunlun workshop but the only times I have seen a rat and a dog literally bounce around me just happened to be after a workshop.

Also, Max I beleive is a Rat. So it's his year I suppose.

sorry that I have
no haiku for you today
perhaps another time

The worm that eats its
Self becomes Ouroboros
The circle of life.

You must be looking at the same lake I can see outside my office window...
Jane - pretty slick... assuming the extra syllable was intentional...

Is that last syllable a time out?

what happened to this great thread ? Muddy worms are a beautiful image ( at least to a carp)...

Does this help? probably not as I'm not too sure about the syllables either but I can say it so it sounds 5 7 5

wow this thing, this al-

Now ouroboros!

Hey liane is the plural of liana

seeking sunlights warmth

longing for springtime

oh dammit and i even looked it up before writing... so i should have formulated "i grow the liane", but thanks for picking it up anyhow...
