In mid december 2018 I fell ill and was kindly admitted to the hospital in Venice where I was treated very well. I did not eat but I think I drank a little water in the first days and was on intravenous support for many weeks. On chirstmas eve they repaired the inside of my stomach which meant that I was without water and food for another 4-5 days. When I eventually could eat a little closer to new year, the food tasted very bad - like chewing cardboard or something like that. (The hospital food was certainly fine, though). I understood that this is how food really tastes to the human body - and understood anorectics very well - but that humans are in the miserable position of having to eat nevertheless. Then the old slogan 'if you can't beat them, join them' solves the problem - and people agree to the conditions of History and enjoy the food.
Christianity solves this problem of eating - since it is the miserable situation of having to comply with the conditions of History - and the very 'Tentor' - which is the human dependency. When the christian holy communion defines 'food' as lifting the conditions defined by 'joining them' from history to heaven, it is the solution to this problem and people can eat without getting hostile - without joining the conditions of History.
But there are other aspects in human life and existence than only eating which is such a problem of dependency. Good poetry could offer such alternative solutions. I would say this is what my TEQ tries to do. TEQ #126:
TEQ #126
Luke 24:50 εξηγαγε δε αυτους εξω εως εις βηθανιαν, και επαρας τας
χειρας αυτου ευλογησεν αυτους.
Good morning.
A winter is always the same,
was a self-decisive game.

So you still recover swattery moans

Yeah!

The mirror poem to this is TEQ #1594:
Timberleave
Came to make the deadfall of the great nazi.
Oh definitely - they've seen him and came to jerk off the Leff.

These allow for the security test.
I would have liked the person

but I've also said something
that's over 60 year.
Some people stand and be usening on their soul.
The røver ronked the line before she missed.

Parmigianino 'Sante Lucia e Apollonia' (source)
Parmigianino 'Pala di Bardi' (source - english article)
7/1-2024: Notice the similarity of the line drawings on Saint Catherine's dress in Parmigianino's 'Pala di Bardi', dated to 1521, and the Madonna of Guadalupe, dated to 1531 and considered a revelation of divine character.
The italian article tells of a 'restoration' that should have been made in 2016-2018 and which seems to have removed the timber board on the righthand side from the artwork - and indeed even the line drawings on the dress seem to be largely rubbed off, if it is not only a poor reproduction. Why did the timber leave the artwork? Is it that my poetic work has been so badly abused (business, media etc) since TEQ was completed in 2008 - or even since DDS was completed in 2015 (I have, for example, speculated if 'The Dynasty' 2017 TV series could have been based on aspects of this DDS of mine) that the understanding of the relevant revelational aspects have taken it into 'viking' readings being assigned priority? The 'dirt' had to be removed from Parmigianino's work? But then it is better to stop possible plagiarisms of my work than to remove the 'dirt' from renaissance artworks. (I do not believe that the restoration of the artwork knew about my book, but the ideas could have been circulating in uncredited form in the culture).
Did the eagle lose (or 'miss') a feather (correlate to the 'timber board') down on the 'clock' so that the 60 years were reduced by the 10 years 1521-1531? Or even that the 60 years arise from the 10 years subtracted from the 70 years of natural and automatic copyright?
Parmigianino's artwork is tempera on timber board. See TEQ #1676 with the mirror poem TEQ #44.
There are also some interesting observations in this file.
