THE MATH: ((Vesta + Aquarius) CONJUNCT (Pluto + Capricorn)) INCONJUNCT (Lilith + Gemini) = like a Beloved
THE WEAVE:
Vesta plays Dead,
laying like a pharaoh
on her bed, with headphones on…
Lilith pushes open the Door,
"Whatcha doing V?"
Vesta opens one eye,
"Downloading ideas
into my brain,"
she says, and closes it
again. "Couldn't you
just read?"
Lilith asks.
Vesta sighs, and sits up:
"When I was a child,
I read All
Day. I would read
as I walked. I would read
as I played. But Now,
it is challenging
for my brain, to inhale
the Word that Way.
I have become more
like a Beloved
listener. Still hungry, but
imbibing in a different
form. When I strike
against an idea
my body recognizes
as meaningful, I get excited.
It is agitating. I have to
put the book down, move and make
something, to keep processing
through it. Like the first rumblings
of an erection, it's hard
for me to keep it
in my pants. Listening,
lets me twiddle
my thumbs, stretch
my legs, and doodle. Also,
I can listen faster
than I can read, and with
more comprehension,"
V finishes as she inverts
herSelves into a handstand.
"I Love how you are
just embracing this whole,
1/2 computer thing,"
Lilith admires her,
from where she leans
in the doorWay.
"All being should play
to their strengths,
no Matter
if they are perceived
as another person's
weakness,"
V says, as she turns
the volume up, in her
headphones, and shuts
the Door, in Lilith's face.
