from whence they stood......

as fate would have it......

the electrons are charging forward............

in a most 'audacious' way......

electrified magnificence.....with a side of 'chagrin'.....

well, after all......NOTHING is perfect....or so it seems.....

and so.......we move in a DIRECT way toward euphoric mania.......

sweet.....sweet.......

perhaps what we wish for, ultimately, is within our 'said' grasp........

perhaps, in effect, one should be very , very careful regarding 'wishes' and such.....

for after all the posturing and jockeying and rejiggering is said and done.......

the simple truth is that a fish cannot DROWN, without being choked!!

and that is that!!!!

choked fish is distinctly NOT on the menu in the hotel dining room of 'geriatric HUDSON'......

gotta paint!!!!!
gotta paint!!!!!

silly and superfluous speculation......
no rest for the weary biker chicks!!!

gotta hop on the old Harley and cruise to ascent ion......
yup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the candid stranger.......

he lurks out in the abyss......
out in the 'FRIENDLY' abyss......
out in HER 'FRIENDLY' abyss.......
can an abyss be FRIENDLY????
he is about to take the leap into her universe.......she can as much as FEEL him on his way.....
blond and fair and big and 'chill in'.........so 'chill in'........
and the anticipation is palpable in its aggression......
in its splendid magnificence......

and so the girl is told to "wait patiently"......
HA!!
if only he knew how arduous the task!!!!
how IMPOSSIBLE REALLY FOR THE 'MAIDEN IN WAITING'.......

fair haired 'devil boy'........SHE CANNOT WAIT!!!!!
the weekend will tick by.......as if a metronome on a past grand piano of the hunchbacked master.......
tick to ck.......tick to ck......
a brunch.......
a swim.....
paint!!!! paint!!!!
for gods sake!!!!

to be taken by surprise.........

.......is one of life's most splendiferous attributes!!!
one truly never knows when purple and yellow and psychedelic balloons will fall from the sky,
onto ones LAP!!!!
....with 'stick-it notes' attached!!!!
I'm not kidding!!!
the notes have assorted messages......"i love you'......."happy birthday!"........
"be mine".....etc.....
in point of fact, it has been RAINING BALLOONS in my backyard ALL DAY LONG!!!!!
I'm not even kidding!!!!
bouquets of latex wonder have floated their way into my house even!!!
magnanimously sent down from the heavens.......
AMAZING!!!
FANTASTIC!!!
I'm just beside myself with delight!!!!
surprises ....
wrapped up with red ribbons and glitter!!!!!
offerings!!!!
limitless......
an INFINITY OF surprises!!!!
July is GORGEOUS in new york!!!!!!

who knew?????

full moon......

above my head........the orb of 'magnetic persuasion'.......
in FULL esteem......fully dilated.......
as if.......as if.......
the gods were whispering a star-crossed melody in my ear......
'WE LOVE YOU.......'we love you......'
and then some......
fully dilated, Spanish moon.....she-moon.......
pouring over the methodical articulation, as if it were eventually becoming 'disappeared'.....
invisible.....ignored.....

my lady moon, shine your ethereal and whimsical light upon my furthest meanderings........
envelop me in your yellow majesty, as only YOU can.......

and when the love affair between you and me has reached its crescendo, REMEMBER ME, lady moon........
as i shall surely remember you..........

and a light shown ethereally.......

...through the mist.....
the light of redemption......
of euphoric transmutation......
ultraviolet light.......
to re energize and re invigorate the aura.......
the esteemed aura of the somewhat under-purified soul....
.......or so it seemed
as well as the physical body.....to be sure....

and free thinking and high vibratory manifestations were felt, albeit hyperbolic ally........
conquests!!!!
conciliatory con questrians!!!!
golden saddles ablaze in the july sunlight!!!!
GORGEOUS!!!! GORGEOUS!!!!
free at last, silly geese!!!!

and the girl walked for miles on end........

surveying.......reflecting......
smiling on the inside as well........
as from her fresh face it appeared so........
and as fortune would have it, the ring of truth was heard throughout the cement jungle.......
and the warriors were dancing and chewing bubble gum to the beat of the shamans drum........

and a leprechaun with wings swam by verrrrrrrry quickly, as if the race were on indeed!!

the race to Antarctica!!!
to the 'chill'......
to 'chillin'.......

and yet......something seemed amiss......
not exactly amiss......just sort of 'precipice ish'......
teetering upon an invisible, symbiotic precipice........
or so i was told!!

and the unicycle of life rolls onward......

.....and parents become children......
and children become men.....
and eyes get puffy, and 'second hand smoke' permeates the stadium of voyeurism.........
and the matzoh is particularly stale, having been stashed away with the passover dishes ......
in the basement of the yellow house on fifth street........

bittersweet chocolates are ALL THE RAGE, in order to heal the 'triglycerides' ........
in order to heal the rage??
bittersweet memoirs.....in order to heal the vacuous space in the heart of the people.......

stress levels consolidate on balmy Monday mornings.......
and painters are being dropped off at 'local construction sites'......
by their wives......driving pickup trucks and such........
droning onward.......droning......
to better suit the needs of the community at large......at 'largess'.......

and still.......we fly off into the blue yonder of 'fantastic revelation'.......
swimming in the blue pool.......drinking blue Gatorade.......NOT feeling particularly BLUE whatsoever!.........
