writing about music is like dancing about architecture

Writing about music is like dancing about architecture. (I love this... VIA) ah... “Talking about music is like dancing about architecture”
—Frank Zappa

being

{not spooky}

Our ancestors left their trace

in our blood, bones and DNA.

Essence is our true identity;

Being is born

in the octaves of creation.

You develop knowledge.

Being attracts

experiences you need.

When you awaken

through a succession of events,

you have the capacity of genuine doing.

With new knowledge of Being,

change is possible.

What a world we have imagined,

What illusions we create.

So remain humble.

(from Sleeps with Knives, c 2012)

plans plans plans

Plans?
I have plans.
I'm saving plastic Wonder Bread bags.
I even dreamt how I'm going to braid them.
Maybe I'm nuts. Maybe not.
But hey, the next four years are unknown,
and instead of screaming at the TV (again) (and driving my hubs to drink)
or trusting people who say all will be OK,
even better than we expect,
that the orange clown will give us what we want,
the truth,
the hidden shit, mind-blowing evidence, ending all conspiracy theories,
then I'm waiting.
I'm waiting to hear something smart come out of his mouth.
