Art @ Wanås Castle in Knislinge















And its the best thing because everyone can swing together on one tree. and there are many different levels, and you can go high if you can handle it. to do so you must climb from swing to swing. and people gather around because.















Jenny Holzer, artist who works with words, affected this sloser through the years, go to her website. This rock is part of an larger installation consisting of a stone wall running for a few km through the forrest. every few meters there was a stone with words engraved.

Goodbye

I saw a moon in the daytime
It said say goodbye to the night
I saw a moon in the daytime
It said say 'goodbye you' to the night
(2x)
please don't hold me down,
I don't think i want you anymore,
good,goodbye to the night(moon)
(repeat)
--G, C, D

the best slide

today i discovered the best slide, its windy and metal and you have to climb a hill to get to it. it makes me cry.
its for all the kinds of kids of sweden. and there is a little school nearby, and for a playground there are tree-trunks lying on the ground. and wood to make all kinds of shelters. and its all clean and smooth. good type of wood you can tell it has been lasting along. and although its in the dirt and some sand and some mossy grass, it seems like you would be pretty clean and safe, and not a place for too many bugs.
there are also big see-saws that look the best, and thick ropes hanging from the trees.
in front of each classroom was a pick-nick bench. probably kids could eat lunch there sometimes.
I looked in the classroom windows, large windows
to let in the light,
which is a view of the quad area between classrooms.
and then as i went away i saw a wall made of art. on the side of a building. and it made me drip water. because at first when the light hit, it was only color and strange perspectives, with shadows. and i knew it was a wall and i knew it was art. but i didnt know more than that. and that was enough.

in another park at another time i was with xandre and andrew and we smoked hash joints on a swing set which was large and round and the three of us could sit, with our feet in the middle down in the webbing in the middle.
and then when we were good. i pushed andrew as he lay hammock-style on his back with his crossed legs indian-style.
and you go vertical. but the centrifugal forces keep you in place.
and he said it was the best thing ever.
and i believed him.
but i didnt want to go.
and i had a go.
and as he began to push i knew he was correct.
because it was a big sturdy hammock with a steady trajectory, and i could go vertical too.
and i didnt have to hold on. i could keep my hands out floppy to the sides
or i could keep them in my lap.
and i could close my eyes.
when shooting stars got me dizzy.
and i could close my eyes.
and the air current breezed my ears.
and i didnt have to listen to anything
so i didnt listen.
and with my eyes closed i could have been anywhere, comfortable in constant motion.
and that moment as the swing reaches its peak and then as you fall back
and that other moment at the bottom. or when you are on the rise.and your eyes are closed.
and you can feel your organs as they are: closer to your spine than normal and a bit higher up.
you dont have to think about them if you dont want to.
but i thought of that, or rather, i felt that. I did not think it but it was there.
my organs closer to my spine
and you can go vertical if you want.
and i did. and i had my eyes closed.
