My heart is thumping, thumping... dancing with delight right now! I think no on can look at this images (the red candles are pure mild magic), drink the moonlight you've poured into every line and not want to add their soul-song to them... Scars are door-building-magic, transformation's calling card, flesh-tales that say to the world: Look at me, I am a living masterpiece. And your art, my dearest Victoria, shows us all that in the most delicious of ways...

Thank you sooo much for adding your wild magic to the Beautiful Freaks Fest. I love, love, love it! ♥❤️♥

Rommy said...

The words and imagery here are pure magic, extolling the enchantment of scars. I really adore this bit: Unwilling to die or be destroyed my flesh became a wilderness of beautiful scars. That just sings of an indomitable spirit determined to grow as strong and wild as they can.

Well. . . I have never made this correlation before but. . .

All the scars I have are tied to childhood. Tied to the events and places that would, one day all these years later, call me back to their magic where I now see I always needed to be. They are like portals to that world. And I can recall how, often, when I was feeling lost in life, I would stare at them.

In particular the one in the center of my palm that is now so much smaller than it seemed at the age of seven. The one that is the only visible reminder of something I would never think to need help in remembering. . . or would I? After all, bruises heal, holes in brick walls and broken furniture are all replaced, good as new. The car that caused it long since gone I am sure. If not for that tiny scar, would I have pushed it away, miracle of grace that was and all? Would I have forgotten it, forgotten the voice that came from nowhere and commanded me to "lay down" a moment before? Would I have allowed that defining moment to be left behind in the rush to be something more adult and, by that choice, something undoubtedly less?

It's not the only scar from that event though. When I went home this past year and my mother told me to lift the living room rug (she had recently had all the old wall to wall removed and the wood floors redone) and there, under the area rug, the only scar the house itself bears from that night near to forty years ago. . . the burn mark from the tire that spun, searing itself in place once the car had come to a stop sitting over my prone seven year old body. Just one tiny scar. . . linked to another. Yes, I need to write about that. . . thank you Victoria for lighting the way with courage and wonder. :)

Oh I am sorry this was so off the topic of wanting comment on how wonderful your own post and expression was. Yes, it touches and inspires. . . obviously. : )

Creative Encounters & Kindred Spirits

I love to meet and connect with fellow creatives! I have a deep appreciation for all artists, creative thinkers, unique souls.
While my nature is mostly introverted and I thrive as a hidden -solitaire, I have found connecting with other creative-spirits to be profoundly nourishing and deeply magical in ways my soul understands. To those I have met along the way that have enriched my life with your art-music-writing-creations-passion-energy-open-mindedness....I thank you immeasurably ! and to those I have reconnected with..thank you for giving me a sense of community in a world I always felt on my own in. Thank you for these creative encounters, they have transformed me.
