Artist and poet Bruce Rimell brings another strange and colourful poetic travelogue, springing from eight inspiring days and nights on the Greek island of Milos in the Cyclades... everything is touched by fingers of gales, all's in motion: sea, air, land shivers ...walking through a volcanic terrain buffeted by strong winds from the tail end of an Aegean storm, with his perception transformed by calls for the return of the world famous 'Venus de Milo' - more properly 'Aphrodite of Milos' - back to her home island, the sight of her in the mountains... hey Paris...! Aphrodite wants to go home ...as if Aphrodite herself was whispering in the breezes, her truest melody, feeling her way into the poet's heart, his words, his dreams... I've been hearing her voice, the one who smiles, who persuades into the human heart, and mine so easily opened, so swayed by heaven on earth, and shadows ...these verse notes are echoes, fragments of a song, as much from Aphrodite as for her, as well as an elegy to a unique and stunning island landscape... ask how and why all day and all night upon the Melian isle...
