Handyman forever, or the Sound of Silence

Only the few consciously romantic about it seekers will miss it. Maybe.
But thousands of others just will not hear it for a while, maybe even a year or longer:
the incredible squeeking sounds of the back gate of Ramanashram. How come?
I lubricated it a few days ago with the very same sweet almond oil that I use to keep my skin from squeeking too.

The sounds of the gate reminded a bit of this deliberately squeeking artwork of Tinguely that I once saw in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Looked up one of his moving artworks for you, one with a lot of water! The Tinguely Fountain in Basel.

    it looks like it is your second [if not the only]
    home

    the little village
    throuhg the gate
    behind the “wall”
    the kids living there
    their laughter
    what magic!!
    I found.
