A Meta-Review
Make a thought photograph. Write down what you do not see. What you perceive. Are you influenced? Have you detached yourself from foreign images? They are still there, perhaps subconsciously. It's time to close your eyes.
Fuzzy soft roots pulse bitter buttery cream through the veins onto a dark leathery back. As if you and a diamond-shaped creature were bridged by an iris. Green fairy from bioluminescence plays a tuberose balloon, trumpet-shaped, silky flesh membrane, whispered floral notes. On the bathed skin of a girl, tiny sour roses. Above, a quiet rustling, white listening, shimmering hair in glowing waves that wash over your scalp, mossy shells extinguishing in fire, spicy smoke in gentle hissing, salt edges on cistus bushes, mixing bark mulch into earth liqueur, blurring thoughts in alcohol mist, in the midst, afterwards and in between.
Write it down. So that it can be understood. I don't know if that's possible. They are wild notes on a Post-It. Sentence fragments on A4 graph paper. They stand at the top of the second section. Scent, very emotional and delicate. As if all that is written merges into a fragrance of familiar skin, floral and wild, coarse-leathery and mild, a liqueur-like shimmer with salty edges and smoke remnants from campfires, from moss and roots, from mulchy woods and resin-stuck pelts, stirred into an enchanting cream, handcrafted and in small batches by a woman from Vermont, Abby Hinsman. That's enough manufacturer information. Who is supposed to read all this?
