That man...orange...

[Pixelina]

As I was walking from the forest beyond the tracks, I came to an open field. Very small, of course. A view of the hauntings and the moon. The moon was casting splashes of white in certain spots on the grass.
I crossed the field to get to my bench. But as I approached, my night vision gave me the image of the occupation of my table. It was occupied by a worn-out man. Wearing tattered jeans and no shirt, he was bald, no hair anywhere on his body, for that matter. His skin was a dark red-orange, and looked almost like it was peeling away. Or already had, and this is what was underneath. He had his legs crossed, his harms flopped over each other on top of them. And his body was leaning over all that.
I was scared, but I sat down next to him anyway. Then he turned his head, looking at me almost sideways. And right then, everything I ever wanted to know but never could, I understood clear as day.

this is very interesting...does the orange man symbolize anything in particular?

and it makes me wonder why everything you ever wanted to know, but couldn't, was answered by the way he looked at you...

get back to me on this one...

well you see, this vision sort of thing happened to me one night and i wrote it down,
what its about is so crazy hard to describe.
it's like i was so scared of so many things, dark places by myself included. it's like in my vision something totally weird happened to me in a place like that, but i faced it, and was rewarded

aaahh....you pull us in so far, but, it seems like you dont finish...you are able to capture a simple moment so vividly, it totally draws me into a scene, but you fail to mention what happened to the "man" on the table...

Mostly hairless man, orange... makes me think of a Shaoin monk. Ever reasearch Eastern mysticism? The Tao Te Ching is worth more than a passing glance, especially if you can find a translation by Thomas Cleary.

yeah, i totally agree with you, thom, but
that was where my vision ended. i suppose
i could add to it...but i'd have to think
long and hard on that one...
