so the game is set...........

players prepared for battle.........
lines of demarcation set in preparation for war........
is the human inclination a 'loving, nurturing one'?
or are we really created to jump, boxing gloves poised, into battle at the first sign of weakness?

what are the rules of engagement?

is every broken promise a cause to battle?

when is enough really enough??
what is that fabled 'tipping point'?

can we make critical decisions from emotion?
is strength a better point from which to gague accurately the
cause and affect of one own actions?

clearly, amid turmoil, one cannot expect to decipher meaning.......optimal entrance points......etc
so then........
we wait........
we incorporate patience......
we become almost 'tauist' is our stance......

perched........
ready.......
strong.........
bring it on, cowboy!

when one least expects it..........

out of the abyss........
no time for preparation nor posturing..........
appears justin..........

before ones very eyes........
an angel.........
a prophet.......

dressed in wolves clothing........
edgy.........mysterious......available.........

saying profound, life-altering things..........
things that make me quiver........
with anticipation.........with trepidation...........
warnings , in a way, masked in veiled threatening statements......
hints of something to come.......
hints of spiraling excitement.........

the prophet.......
he sees all.........
he issues assurances, all-the-while.........
commanding respect and reverance.........

he lirks in the darkness...........
his kiss has the taste of apples bathed in sunlight.........
dimpled..........exquisite.........

well, my friends..........
i am dumbfounded by the appearance of this masked stranger.....
we shall see........
yes.........
a story is unfolding here on the upper east side........
and i am but a player in the script........
awaiting the directors instructions.........
wondering whether i will, in fact, have the wear -with- all to live up to the prophets expectations........

truth unfolding............

truth enters the room when one least expects it........
it knows no boundaries.........
no sense of decorum........
truth speaks volumes in but a single sentence.......

truth has an insidious way of getting under ones skin while
seeming to be innocently marking its own territory........
so as not to shock us or scare us.......

noone escapes its clutches......noone.......

and the thing about hearing truth........about its resonating for us.......
is that theres NO getting around its presence.......
for once truth is spoken.........that ends that!!
the world is no longer a rose colored glass filled with pink champagne.......
OH NO, my friends.........
OUR world has become a cold, drafted schlitz in a big, thick mug.......
and that one milisecond of revelation........
well, it keeps repeating itself, reverberating in our heads.....
pounding and beating and clubbing us into aquiescence.....

we might all just as well accept truth with none of its guise and guile.....
for we know it VERY WELL when we hear it........
and whats more.........we OWN it........
might as well invite truth in from the cold......
feed it, bathe it, and tuck it into our beds......
cause, baby..........it aint leavin!!
truth has moved in on us........
GAME OVER, FANTASY!!

hard to believe............

this notion of a democratic country..........

FOR the people........OF the people.......

is this really a democracy???

are we truely the masters of our own god-given destinies???

you have GOT to be kidding........

a world utterly disturbed and confused by the politics.........the economy.........the terrorism.........the poverty.........the ozone.......

blasphemous to its very core........

decaying in a way.........

these diatribes are becoming almost corny........

has electing this new president unleashed a veritable minefield of possibities??

is change necessarily a good thing???

what of 'consistency'?

something to be said of remaining consistent........in the face of extreme adversity.......

this will certainly 'shake things up'!........

but in a good way??

hmm.........not so sure about that

we shall see where the global opinion sits one year from today......

where our ASSES sit, for that matter........

will we be living in the same places??
paying the same mortgages ??
making love to the same partner??

or will everything have gone mad...........
.the order turned into apple pie..........'upside-down' cake.........

serving it up to the fundamentalists on a platter with pink ribbons ???

and grenades disguised as kiwis???

the implications are staggering......

accupuncture required.........

a pointilist...........the true accupuncturist.........
she KNOWS where to pierce.......she intuits.........like me........
with a paint brush..........
she manipulates the chi........crosses and unblocks the meridians........
its not for naught...........the chi expression...........
it circulates within the tiny room, and i arise............having 'shorted' the marketplace severely.........would that i had done so!!!
one can fantasize about what couldve, shouldve, wouldve happened...........HAD WE SUCCESSFULLY SHORTED THE MARKETS!!!!
we would be gazillionaires!!!!
sitting on piles of emeralds and GOLD.........
TRUE ALCHEMY.........
alas............no gold for the soldiers..........just bill collectors with tatoos and nose rings..........
what on earth has happened to the 'suits'????
the suits were ruling the world!!!!
where did they go??
did they trade their botega loafers in for crocks???
oh me!!! oh my!!!!

transmuted suits into 'crock' guys at the reservoir with labs.......not laptops!!!

en pointe............

CON EDISONIAN............

AND A BIG, DARK, OMINOUS DUDE WITH A TATOO AND AN OLD CELL PHONE ON HIS BELT APPEARED ..........
OUT OF THE MIST........THE HAZE OF ELEVATORS.........
ORANGE.........
HERMES....ISH...........REALLY........
ORANGE AND BROWN........
HE ASKED FOR CASH!!!!
YIKES!!!!
HE NEEDED TO SEND THE OFFSPRING TO THE CAMP!!!
THE CAMP OF REDUCTION.........
BUT IT COULDNT BE DONE WITHOUT ATTACKING THE GIRL AT MY DOORWAY!!!
HE ARRIVED VIA HELICOPTER..........REDUCED TO NOTHING..........
SNIVELING YET AGAIN.......
POSED TO SAY THE PRAYERS...........
TO LEAD THE PEOPLE........

A PAPERLESS WORLD......

IT IS, AFTER ALL........
THE MILLENIUM........
DO AWAY WITH THE EXCESS OF PAPER AND ENVELOPES AND COPIES AND COPIES AND COPIES OF ENDLESS RIFF-RAFF........
SAVE A TREE, FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!
DOES NOONE UNDERSTAND????
THE DILEMMA ..........AT HAND????

WE ARE FALLING THROUGH THE CRACKS OF ECONOMIC
PAVEMENT.........
THROUGH THE GROUTING WEVE SPLICED SO ELOQUENTLY ON THAT MOSAIC WE CALL 'STABILITY'.......

THE KITCHEN NEEDS REDOING, YOU SAY???
WHAT ABOUT THE STARVING MONKEYS AND ORANGITAN??
DO THEY NEED A NEW KITCHEN????
THEY ARE DYING FOR A BANANA TO 'MUNCH' ON......
MUCH LESS A KITCHEN IN WHICH TO REFRIGERATE THE NON BANANA 'AT HAND'......

WHAT ABOUT THE MIDDLE EAST ???

ARE THERE NEW KITCHENS ON THE BATTLEFIELDS OF
LOST LIMBS??
THE MIDDLE EAST IS CRYING AND HOWLING FOR OUR
MERE ATTENTION......
BUT WE ARE ATTENDING TO THE NEW DISHWASHER!!!!
HOW CAN THIS BE HAPPENING???
WEVE BEEN TAUGHT SO MAGNIFICENTLY NOT TO 'BETRAY'.........
PERHAPS GIVING UP A LOAF OF BREAD OR TWO WOULD BE IN ORDER, SO THAT RELIEF COULD COME TO THOSE IN 'NEED'............
LETS PONDER THAT.........A LOAF OF BREAD OR TWO........

WOULD GIVING IT AWAY HAVE HARD CORE CONSEQUENCES???
WHAT OF THE TWO SHABBOS CHALLAHS??
HOW WOULD WE FULFIL THE COMMANDMENT??

IS THERE A HEIERARCHY??

DOES FEEDING A STARVING CHILD 'TRUMP' HAVING TWIN CHALLAHS FOR SHABBOS??
OR IS THERE A WAY TO DO BOTH??
ARE THEY MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE???

DOES IT REALLY MATTER??

WHAT OF DOGMA AND RHETORIC???

WHAT OF BLIND FAITH??

"TOO LITTLE TOO LATE"
.......YOURE THINKING......

NEVER............BUT NEVER TOO LATE FOR TO SING THAT OL'
REDEMPTION SONG........

the bride........the master.........

in yonder window he sleeps...........he regards the night as the key to the prison cell of his exsistence.......
for he can free himself from the shackles of his destiny by daylight...............into the dark and voluminous depths of sleep.....
whatever measure it takes.......he will go the distance.......
to experience the laws of conformity with passionless constitution.........
he will NOT be punished for his yearnings.........
his punishment lies simply in his own painful soul..........
digging through the dirt and earth........
to arrive at the 'fruit'...........
abandoned by the carnivorous ones.........searching for flesh.......
the fruit will do him fine.........
he of simple expectation.........
supremely male..........

around the bend..........

and bend it will!!
michhhhh mixed with mitch mixed with itch equals........
CHAOS!!!!!
words continue to have EXTREME WEIGHT!!!
the archives are filled with channels and channels of the fifteen bucks i owe!!!!
kneecaps will be broken ...........there will be blood and slivers of knee........would that the slivers dont fall into the gefilte fish mixture im concocting for the friday fest!!!!
that would be travesty..........
how can we affectuate a significant change in venue????
how can we???
WE MUST...........simply put........
scrambled diatribes of verbose, banal minutia!!!!!

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN???

......okay...........

we begin anew........only alternative really..........
and the fifteen bucks plus interest accrued.............
YIKES!!!!
ITS BECOME three thousand dollars!!!!
this economy is driving us all mad.............

i will pay the IOU, said the brown cow............
i will pay, or i will live with head hung in shame..........
the nanny will be the intermediary, and peace will reign supreme.........
NUF SAID...........
okay?????
okay??????

from atop the ivory tower.......

she sits in judgement......
while all the while, berating herself for the poor choices......
so.......the anger......the indignation.........the judgement........
its not REALLY pointed at me after all........
shes really furious at herself.........

and arent we all exactly like her?

we think ourselves so noble, while all-the-while, shooting ourselves in the proverbial foot........
then we limp to the side of the road, leaving a trail of blood for miles........
and then what???

we begin the entire absurd process all over again!!!
will we never learn????

can we continue to self-destruct and not actually destroy ourselves in the process???
maybe im too harsh.........
maybe i sound like im hatin'....... but im not!!!

only telling brutal truth through a microscopic microphone......
like those dog whistles........
only the dogs hear them......

BUT, sister , THE DOGS........THEY ARE NOT LISTENING!!!!!
try and try as i might to attend to their needs, those bitches
(female dogs!)........are NOT listening........
my brutality is falling upon deaf hearing aids..........
they should take the hearing aids out of their ears........for crying out loud!!!!
THEY DONT WANT TO BE SAVED.......
THEY FEEL. SOMEHOW, UNDESERVING.......

but i know way down deep that those little puppies deserve better.......
they deserve a future........

i must teach them the art of self-love.......

but how???

i dont own a mirror large enough to reflect their insecurities......
ill think on it........REFLECT on it.........

FOR WANT OF A NAIL.........

A SLIGHT MISSTEP......

EVER SO SLIGHT.......SO INSIGNIFICANT AS TO BE CLOSE TO UNDETECTABLE......

CAN REAK HAVOCK ON THE SIMPLEST OF SITUATIONS.....



IVE JUST HAD THE SEVERE MIS PLEASURE OF A 'PROOF IN PUDDING' MOMENT MYSELF.......



THE ROYAL WE.......

THE ROYAL FLUSH.........

THE HOUSE O' CARDS CRASHING DOWN LIKE AN AVALANCHE.......as a result of a tiny error in judgement......

hmmmm.......food for thought.......



we really MUST calculate with precision and an eye toward ultimate consequence, our every step......

in shamanic theology, they say that WORDS HAVE WEIGHT....

very true indeed......
a word can cut to the quick
a word can kill
a word......in a single kind gesture.......can light up a room
a word can render a man impotent
omnipotent.......

the weight of our words, my friends, is heavily resting upon the shoulders of our lips........

so pucker up!!!
but not without giving it some serious consideration........

MONKS DINING OUT.......SPACIALLY BEREFT.........

TO SIT, AS IT WERE, AT AN ELONGATED, PURITANICAL, RECTORY TABLE.......
PIGEONS////////

IN A ROW.......
CLOTHED IN INCANDESCENT WISDOM.......
SILENT........
RAPHSODIC.......HARMONIC........
UTTERLY PURITANICAL.........
COHESION ABOUNDING IN DRAB, BROWN SPLENDOR......
OXIMORONIC......TAINTED........

EATING MUSH.........JUST PORIDGE.........WITH CREAM.......
BROWN SUGAR TO MATCH THE MONK'S ROBES.........


HUNGRY..........
HUMAN........BUT NOT...........NOT REALLY HAVING ANY FUN........JUST MEDITATING AND RIGAMORTIS SETTING IN.....
BODIES STIFFENING WITH WISDOM.........

BUT NOOOOO FUN.........

LIGHTEN UP, BROTHERS.......
HELP IS ON THE WAY........
YOU MAY FEEL THE PASSION YET!!!
ALL IS NOT LOST.........
I HOPE.......FOR YOUR SAKES!

the colors are resplendent......

ironically, even in the dark, drab rain, the colors of new york today are magnificent......reds, gold yellows..........
incredible.........
evidence for certain of god.......
and the gorgeous autumn colors are BOUNCING off the COPPER dome of the mosque.......almost as if repelled somehow......or possibly in cohesion.......
hmm.....have to think on that......

maybe the rain and the dome and the leaves are CONSPIRING.....
i said MAYBE!!!
or perhaps its all just simple happinstance!!!

COLOR EVERYWHERE I LOOK!!!
im luvvvvving new york today!!!
mind you, its only 11 am!!

talk to me at 4......after the honking and the grabbing and the sirens pounding into every cell of my brain.....

remember that michael douglas movie???

the one where he goes from ONE terrible,outragiously unlucky situation to another.......over and over.......all day........

at the end of the totally brutal day, he gets in line for a BIG MAC..........
they tell him theyre outta cheese.......
AND HE SHOOTS the mcdonalds kid in the head!!!!

thats, of course, a very extreme case of what can happen at the end of a less than perfect day!!

BUT THIS DAY..........THIS ONES LOOKIN PRETTTY FINE!!
so far!

BONE OF CONTENTION......

FRIENDS, ROMANS, COUNTRIFIED ONES......
IN YE HOUSE ASIDE THE SHORE......
SHORING UP........
FILLING THE CUPBOARDS WITH INDESTRUCTABLE
MANISCHEVITZ CANS.....

JOHN BIRCHER'ESQUE', AS IT WERE......
HIS PHILOSOPHY ON COMMUNIST TAKEOVERS.....
APPROPRIATING THE EMERGENCY PROVISIONS............

FOR A 'RAINY DAY'........
SAVING UP FOR THE EVERFEARED 'RAINY DAY'......
TODAY WAS A RAINY DAY........
NO CANNED GOODS WERE NEEDED..........
ALTHOUGH THE CUPBOARDS WERE NOT, ADMITTEDLY, BARE.......
YES, I ADMIT TO A PURCHASE OR TWO OF NECESSARY PROVISION.......
ONE MUST KEEP EQUIPPED AND STOCKED HEAVILY IN THE EVENT OF AN ATTACK.....

A VERITABLE 'BOMB SHELTER' OF KOSHER CANNED GOODS!!!!!

LIFE DOES HAVE ITS REWARDS!!!

WE WILL GIVE THANKS!!!!
WE WILL........I SAY........
FOR EVERYTHING WE HAVE........AND FOR THOSE WEVE DODGED........

I SEE THEM OVER THE HORIZON......
THE ARMIES OF STUFFED TURKEYS, MARCHING IN RYTHMIC PRECISION.......

HERE THEY COME!!!!!
WATCH OUT!!!
THEIR WINGS ARE HANGING BY A THREAD!!!
THEY ARE WIG MAKERS......ONE AND ALL!!!!

THE IRONY OF IT!!!

CARVED AND DELECTABLE BIRDS OF YORE.........

GALLOPPING O'ER HILL AND DALE TO SIT UPON A CHECKERED TABLECLOTH, AMID THE STUFFING......

so a sign appears......

amid endless amounts of net surfing and emailing and texting and typing and typing and typing!!!!!

and this sign says........something like.....mmm....

"this site contains both secure and insecure blah blah...."
and youre not at all certain what it really means, what it pertains to, whether its a threat or a warning of something imminent.....
but you.......ALWAYS TELL IT TO CONTINUE........

right????

even though you know that theres potential danger........

so my question to you is.....

"whats up with that?"

we are warned in every shape and way imaginable to NOT GO THERE.........but we do!!!!!

why???

is it because we HAVE TO???
because we WANT TO???
are we so lazy and twisted that there are signs of terror and anarchy FLASHING ON OUR HOME SCREENS, and we just
cant break away........do our research???

is that really the bane of all exsistence??

the yin......the yang......

were pulled.......were repelled.........
but in the end.....
at the very end of the day...........

IT DOESNT FREAKING MATTER........

cause were gonna do it anyway, by gosh!!!!

its predestined.......
predetermined........
its fatalistic really..........
exsistential.......

we do what we do cause we HAVE to........
cause were preprogrammed to do it all.......

someone on very, very high has set the playing field eons ago....

what did shakespeare say? ' ALL THE WORLDS A STAGE'.......

quite well said, my dear sir.......
kudos........

WHERES THE RAW CHICKEN????

OH MY!!!!
NEED THE RAW CHICKEN!!!
EMERGENCY CHICKEN BY 4 OCLOCK!!!!
SHABBOS IS AT 415!!!!

BUT WAIT!!!

IF ITS 4,,,,,IT OUGHTTA BE COOKED!!!
HMM......
DILLEMA.....

LAURA HAS HER CHICKEN......
BUT OF COURSE SHE DOES.....
LAURA ALSO HAS HER RAIN GEAR AND HER NAV SYSTEM RIGGED UP!!!

LAURA IS AT THE TOP OF HER VERITABLE GAME!!!
SHE BE PACKIN SOME SERIOUS GAME......

WOULD THAT I COULD HAVE ORGANIZED MYSELF IN SUCH A WAY, SO AS TO HAVE BEEN PREPARED FOR 4 OCLOCK......

BUT ALAS....

I HAVE NO RAIN GEAR......
NO FRIENDS IN THE GARAGE!

WHAT I DO HAVE......READ CAREFULLY.....

ARE LOTS AND LOTS OF BOCA BURGERS AND CANS OF MANISCHEVITZ!!!!

I CAN MAKE IT TOO!!!!
SHABBOS WILL ARRIVE IN ALL ITS GLORY!!!

WE WONT BE 'BLAMING SHABBOS AT ALL!!!
BY GOLLY......
WE'LL BE CELEBRATING!!!!!

SHABBAT SHALOM TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD CHICKEN DINNER!!!

IN HONOUR OF LAURA.........

FEAR NOTHING.......

FEAR IS, IN AND OF ITSELF, A MONOSYLABIC OXYMORON.....

FEAR CANNOT LIVE UNDER ITS OWN AUSPISCES....
IT FEEDS AND DWELLS ON THE BACKS OF ITS VERY PREDATORS, SO THAT IT CAN JUMP, UNBEKNOWNST TO THEM, AND BECOME, QUITE LITERALLY, EMBEDDED IN THEIR DNA.....

SO THAT, WHEN EXAMINED CLOSELY, IT HAS ASSIMILATED ITSELF QUITE MODESTLY INTO THE OVERALL MECHANISM THAT WE REFER TO AS THE 'HUMAN CONDITION'....
HENCE, SIMPLY PUT, WE ARE FEAR.....
OR FEAR IS US.....

AND ONCE THIS REALLY NASTY AND SUPERFLUOUS LITTLE MAGGET CALLED FEAR HAS WRAPPED ITS GREEDY AND SOMEWHAT 'EVANGELICAL' ARMS AROUND US, WELL......
TRUTHFULLY, ITS NOT SO SIMPLE TO EXTRICATE ONESELF....

SO WE BECOME ACCUSTOMED TO THAT CAVERNOUS PIT WE SEEM TO HAVE FALLEN INTO...

ALL WELL AND GOOD, I SUPPOSE....
WHO, FOR GODS SAKE, AM I TO JUDGE AFTER ALL......

THE PROBLEM THAT ARISES OUT OF 'FEAR' IS PARALYSIS...
THE ABSOLUTE INABILITY TO MOVE.....
AND IF ONE CANNOT MOVE, IT FOLLOWS THAT ONE CANNOT DANCE, KISS, WRITE, ETC...

SO THAT IF WE, AS HUMANS, BECAME ANY MORE PARALYZED BY FEAR THAN WE ALREADY SEEM TO BE,THERE WOULD CEASE TO BE MOVEMENT, RYTHM, FLUIDITY.....

THINK ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS OF A WORLD PARALYZED BY FEAR....

BLAST FROM THE PAST!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!!!
JUST WHEN YA THINK THE GAMES COMIN TO A SLLLLLOW FIZZZZ..
JUST WHEN ENOUGH HAS REALLY COMEE VERRRRY VERRRY CLOSE TO BEING 'ENOUGH'....
YA TURN ANOTHER CORNER......
LO AND BEHOLD!!!!!!
BEST FRIEND IN LIFE APPEARS!!!!!!!
OLDEST, BESTEST, COOLEST, BEAUTIEST PAL IN LIFE!!!!!
JUST LIKE THAT!!!
A SNAP OF THE FINGERS.....A 'SNATCH'ABLE DELECTABLE
VEGANACIOUS 'PAL O MINE'.......
JENNIFER.......O HEAR YE, JENNIFER......
THE FINEST GRANDE DAME THE WESTERN WORLD HAS KNOWN!!!!
I AM BESIDE MYSELF WITH AWE AND WONDER AND.....ehhhh.......
i dont even know how to feel!!!
its so predictactable in its very unpredictability!!!
seriously......
friends are friends are friends.....
but dudes......
this chick and me(the goddessx).......we ROCKED ON!!!
we exemplified perfection with our mere gate.....
we were feared, envied, ogled, copied, entrapped, enmeshed, enslaved, embedded........
we were the silk on your finest lingerie......
we were the golden halo on that angel you think you saw peaking at you from behind the curtains.....
and WE, ME AND JENNALICIOUS, WE BE HAVIN TURKEY PIE COME THANSGIVING DAY!!!!
THESE WOMEN BE ROCKIN OUT!!!!!!
WATCH OUT, WORLD.......

sniveling slime balls and kiddush cups.........

preach, preach, young man...
and thy will will be manifest into the actualized destiny of the people......
preach, oh ye searching fool ......searcher of love and peace and stardom.......
when you stop the search....the FRANTIC, OBSCENE search for recognition.......
that is when true respect will come your way.......
NOT A MILISECOND BEFORE........

oh ye chaser of the gold......
the gold is manifestation of alchemical transmutation...
turning 'nothing into SOMETHING'......
Talmudic.......simple......documented.......

stop being nothing, and the gold will appear....veritable truckloads of it.....

but try as you will, poor sad sap, you cannot grasp the basic principle of humility and faith....
faith enough to allow the gold to transmute itself......
right before your eyes......

CAN YOU IMAGINE????

A WORLD THAT SMELLS AND LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE STEAK??

PINK, CURLY, WHIP CREAMY SLIPPERS TO SLIDE INTO AT THE END OF THAT SILLY AND COURAGIOUS DAY YOU HAD??

MUFFINS ON THE SOFA??

TOWELS IN THE OVEN???

CAN YOU IMAGINE A WORLD GONE MAD???
A NEW PRESIDENT ELECT??
PEACE ON EARTH???

GOOD WILLLLL????
FOR CRYING OUT LOUD........
CAN YOU JUST ABOUT IMAGINE????

WHAT IF TOMORROW, YA WOKE UP.....DRAGGED THAT SLEEPY ASS OUTTA BED......
HAD YOUR COFFEE....mmm........THE COFFEE TASTED DIFERENT SOMEHOW.....

IT TASTED LIKE POPCORN!!!
YES.....POPCORN!!!

THAT SHOULDA TIPPED YOU OFF TO THE SUBTLE YET IRREVOCABLE DIFFERENCE IN THE ATMOSPHERE....
BUT NOOOOOO....

PARTIED WAY TOO HARD LAST NIGHT......
NOT REALLY AT THE 'TOP A YO GAME' YET........
ITS ONLY 9 am!!!
jeeezzzz........

AND SO.....
THE SKY IS A RATHER IRONIC SHADE OF KELLY GREEN!!!

THE TAXIS.....(the ones we used to take!! back in the day!!)......THE TAXIS ARE PURPLE!!!!!

WHAT?????
HOW???
WHEN???
BLUMBERG??
SPITZER???

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN???

MADNESS!!!!
ANARCHY!!!!

WELL, FOR GODS SAKE, THE BUTCHERS MOVED TO FREAKING SECOND AVENUE!!!!

WOE IS ME!!!!!!

relax......dear readers.......
just speculating.......
go right back to your sunday crossword puzzle.......

ya cant make this shit up!!

so it was one of those 'ehhhh' days in new york......
nothin really panning out.....
fielding phone calls and emails from 'unwanted, undesired' callers......
no real rocket science needed......nothing to discect....
no big disasters either.....
just tiny missiles flying at me......piercing the skin,
but not real GUSHERS of blood.....
little buglets nibbling at me....

you know them, those annoying, yucky callers ........
they dont want to let go, but they cant seem to hang on either....
they just hang there in the abyss....hanging like bats asleep during the day......
not dangerous......just ewwwwww.....
seriously, dude, RODENTS hanging upside down ASLEEP!!!!
can you think of anything grosser than that?????

so ones only real choice at this particular juncture is to drive to thelocal filling station......fill the veritable hummer tank, so to speak......
really the ONLY alternative.....a nondecision......

in walks BEAUTIFUL, unknown,'sketch-guy'
chemistry flies!!!!

GAME CHANGER!!!!

one never really knows what surprises are waiting to
sort of 'feng shui'ishly insinuate into the day.....

the lesson here......
TAKE A WALK AROUND THE CORNER.......OR GO TO YOUR LOCAL
exxon mobil.....

TURN THE CORNER....
MAGIC WAITING AT THE STOPLIGHT........
im absolutely certain of this...........

IF I MAY........

CAN WE JUST TOUCH.... FOR A MILISECOND, I PROMISE YOU...
ON THE 'MALE-FEMALE' THING?
THAT CONSTANT BATTLE BETWEEN INTUITION AND EJACULATION.....
BETWEEN MAGICAL, METAPHYSICAL AURA AND JOCK ITCH???

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE ROLES ARE REALLY SO VIVIDLY DEFINED, THAT.....HMMM.....MY GOSH.....THERE REALLY EXSISTS NO ALTERNATIVE WHATSOEVER, BUT TO WAGE BATTLE ON A QUASI-CONSISTENT BASIS IN THE ARENA OF RELATIONSHIP.....

SO IF WHAT IM HYPOTHESISING IS RESONATING FOR YOU, RINGING TRUE IN SOME WAY, AND YOU FIND YOURSELVES CONSISTENTLY AND INEVITABLY TRAPPED WITHIN THE SOMEWHAT CONSTRICTING BOUNDARIES OF THE MALE-FEMALE PING-PONG ATHON.......
WELL.....
ID REALLY TRUELY LOVE TO HURL SOME SHOCKING AND EARTH-SHATTERING PROFUNDITIES AT YOU, CAUSE I KNOW YOU NEED THEM.....FOR GODS SAKE, I NEED THEM!
BUT ALAS.....MY WELL OF GREAT ADVICE, ADMONISHMENT, AND EVEN BULLYING HAS RUN A BIT DRY AT THE MOMENT....
I SIMPLY CANNOT ANSWER THE QUESTIONS AT HAND.....

WE NEED TO SLEEP ON THIS AGE-OLD DILEMA......
AND PERHAPS, BY THE GRACE OF SOME HIGHER BEING, THE MORNING LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE THE ANSWERS IN VIVID, HIGH-DEFINITION SPLENDOR......
...ANNOINTING US WITH WISDOM AND CLARITY......

PERHAPS, MY DEARS, WE WILL KNOW ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW BY MORNING!!

AND PERHAPS UNDER NEW LEADERSHIP, U.S. STEEL WILL ARISE FROM THE ASHES!!!
ONE NEVER KNOWS WHAT THE MORNING WILL BRING!!!
SLEEP TIGHT....NO BED BUGS!
JUST VIOLET LIGHT........TRANSMUTING THE OLD PARTICLES INTO NEW POSSIBILITY......
A NEW DAY IS DAWNING.......
