Good day to all of you,
it is a beautiful day,
here,
in my beautiful ugly,
I am listening to,
Casals,
nothing soothes,
the savage beast in me,
musically,
as much,
as the great Casals.
The Bach suites,
I never tire, ever.
It has been a long week,
much good,
much tiresome.
I am not tired,
I am a little bit,
in need of stimulation,
and,
sustenance,
of the intellectual,
kind.
I saw some interesting,
things at the beginning,
of the week,
some poetry and spoken word,
and,
performance pieces,
stuff to get you thinking,
stimulate and activate,
your creative juices,
and I was invited to the theater,
on Tuesday,
a strong text,
and,
powerful performance,
So, I have been,
a vessel,
so to speak,
for culture,
opening myself up,
for new and different,
experiences.
Work was difficult,
this week,
the atmosphere..not so good.
I mustn't dwell.
It's Fall,
happy Butch Dance!!!(think Snoopy with boots and flannel)
My perfect jacket,
is back,
out with the shorts,
and,
bucket hats,
in with the jeans,
and,
caps,
baseball, tweed, Irish wool,
the light sweaters and hoodies,
and,
oh yes,
wait for it...
FLANNEL
I love Fall.
To me it has never been about,
cold and decay,
to me it's about,
protective layers,
suit of armor,
renewal,
harvest,
sustenance,
physical,
intellectual,
spiritual,
Fall,
I love you,
your wind,
your colours,
your rain,
your bite,
your deep blue skies,
your warm afternoons,
corduroy,
denim,
suede,
flannel,
boots.
I am a four season,
butch,
Vivaldi!
I have a special place,
for all the seasons,
in my heart,
but,
Fall is my season to shine,
Fall is my sweet spot,
plus,
at fifty-one,
I am in the Fall of my years.
Enjoy the Fall,
don't live in the past,
or the future.
Summer,
will be back next year,
and,
Winter,
is a few months off.
Enjoy the crispness,
the sweet apples,
the squash and pumpkins,
the horn of plenty time.
Hold your loved one's hand,
feel the wind in your hair.
Get a new scarf,
look in the mirror,
damn you look good,
Girl!
Be well, you all.
Later girls,
BB
