phoenix misstree gathering from ash, slowly waking to its own potential, the phoenix spreads wings of newborn fire and rises into the night. phoenix flies, proud, strong, testing each boundary, breaking each, ascending like icarus (who really did *touch* the sun, despite what they say), until the force of its own flight drags flames to starved embers, and slowly, cruelly, bitterly, the phoenix falls to ash to prepare for rebirth, to face the cycle of glory and decay once more. 000817 ... fryed chikken "like the heat from a thousand suns it burns on my eternal desire a phoenix from a pyre rising ever higher my eternal desire i'm on fire" astbury/duffy, 1985 000919 ... analise she crumbles in a pile of ashes and he rushes to save her. she threw away the crucufix long ago tossed aside her bible, but she raises those softly lidded orbs of hers up to the sun kissed figure of her savouir 010212 ... rats syd RATS Got it hit down spot knock inside a spider says: "That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

Terminal 4 i presume. Other than some of the artwork scattered about it's rather boring isn't it? the view of this sprawling expanse of dust-bitten city from ground level never ceases to underwhelm, especially from that part of town. 030429 ... splinken I've seen Phoenix [only from the airport] dozens of times, and I think it looks kind of neat. And hot. I like hot places. 030430 ... orginal or extra... best places to see it are from South Mountain on a clear night (I.e night after a good storm when the wind has blown away some of the smog) and there is a good view from the Burton Barr Central Branch library and from the southwest-facing side of the ICU at Good Samaritan Hospital round about the eleventh floor (long story.) The Buttes in Tempe are probably good, but i was insanely high the last time i was there and my favorite part of Lookout mountain right on the southwest edge of Paradise Valley has been blasted through to widen Union Hills Ave. Best view overall would likely be from the Compass Room restaurant at the top of the Hyatt Regency downtown. or looking eastward out at the city from the glass elevator that leads from the lobby to the top. I probably just take it for granted, who knows. i know my least favorite airport landing is at SFO. at least if i'm in a window seat, goddamn plane always looks like it's gonna come right down into the bay and i am something of an acrophobic. (the irony of a bird afraid of hights, no?) 030430 ... splinken I'll remember all that for when and if I ever actually make it out of the Phoenix airport. Landing at airports in oceanside cities gives me the willies. Flying in general scares the B. Jesus out of me, but taking off and landing next to/over the water is totally terrifying. I guess this is one of the reasons I'm partial to changing planes in Phoenix. 030430 ... crimson god help you if you are a phoenix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying past --Ani D. 030925 ...
