Has let us into the world of her journey these past days, letting her leap into the truth-surprising us with the shadow of obsessive thinking about the Entity.
New poems: Four.1 and Five.1, Five.2
Obsiva Tate is a robust character who bounces back from the biggest gut punches that life can throw up. Yes, a character who is cynical and clear in her expression.
I have enjoyed crafting out this work and deciding to show the story through an abstract non linear non horizontal track has allowed the process to develop totally on the character and story’s terms.

Being a product of her times, a victim of circumstance that has found inner strength in facing the worst of and counting the best of on both hands.
I love Obsiva Tate’s openness that the depth of her is to examine the life live and the being living in it.
New to our page:
No Returns from Daunting Sad Miracles.
In this tale of tragedy which flows through a rural life capturing the torment of travel separation for one partner, never are each able to reach into the heart of a relationship. Because is it? Or a long way round.
I started the idea firstly from thinking about the way human love and companionship has a strong hold on our conditioning. How we believe love to be firstly homogenised and secondly a piece of cake of the love professed boldly, if not a little blindly at the start.
I revel in the chance to write this love no love story in poems that start at the start of when things went boom and stars burst in the skies of romance. But they’re all in one camp.
Writing romances is not the focus of this story, I’m not a romance poet by any means, and fortunately I don’t have to write that much. But I like the unknown and unseen complications of Wairua being employed to pull the maximum weight of the relationship that’s not a relationship for the locals.
Please be welcome to read along as I develop the story towards publication.

Two new posts this week to read on the Māori Wahine, Woewoez Tamihana in The Human Design. A Māori Wahine experiment with the non homogenised experiment.
Nau mai haere mai to the circling world in spirals of Woewoez Tamihana. Reading her posts might be of value or not, in this binary matrix. The observations and care taken to look beyond and further into the truth of living as a citified colonised child. Who is stumbling through decolonising access, and mixing it with the realities of how that feels in a world fast changing. Before time can turn the hands on the clock back to start-again.

Our healing colour
A new post, a new home page and updates About us. An offering for a place to strong up our skills and confidence, our self esteem and self worth. These can really take a knock when we face challenges about the value of our race and culture, when we disenfranchised. And when words and actions can harm, color can heal.

A new post for climate change, a passion of mine and a hope for future with calmer clearer skies. However I think my contribution is at the most basics for me. Fast Fashion.
We all know how important our clothing is. We use it for identity, cultural, work, and play. It’s in our very core of existence these days. I attempt to contribute with posts that I can only say what happened.
Work of non-fiction
This continues in the editing process and next newsletter I hope to have more to tell.
5. We will be experimenting with moving our newsletters to a 14 day turnaround.
And the mission will be to produce a video.
Thank you for joining me this time round. It’s been a joy to unravel in words and the better for it.
Till next time happy writing, reading and Being - or maybe - or not - no press
