Hey, truck... just to let you know that I deleted your post "perezoso" from the column Sunday Stream. I gave it quite a bit a thought but could not come to an answer as to why that board was used for a farewell to your friend.

No hard feelings, eh?

I'll email you or pm you and tell you how to "split" the posts, Cecil, in case you want to move a post from your column thread to another location on another forum, rather than deleting it. It's another option you may not have known about. I might not get to it tonight, but soon, I will.

Thanks for your Sunday Stream! We love having you post your column here.

Thx, Dor' - you're right! I know nothing about splitting or moving posts. Any info on that I'd appreciate, altho I don't intend on doing that as a habit or anything.

And thx for the comment on the Streams. I enjoy the challenge of writing them and glad there are some others that enjoy reading them.

I was just thinking about suicide cecil

I think about suicide a lot,

it seems a curse for so many talented people

especially women poets

no problem

it was just a prayer for Perezoso

was he my friend

I am sorry you had to think so much.

could not come to an answer as to why that board was used for a farewell to your friend.

it was a tibetan prayer wheel for his suffering, it was an act of compassion,

but considering the way I write I can understand your confusion

won't happen again. I promise I will always try to be very serious about all my posts to sunday stream

Peace (I am hoping you find some)

i don't want to talk about him no more, just want to enjoy the peace while it lasts. drive on drive on

Post by **stilltrucking** » February 16th, 2005, 7:16 am

ah SooZen I been sort of bitching about him to you, and I didn't like the way it felt, it is like that bit in the old book about dont let the sun go down on your anger. And that soft snooring is when he is dreaming up new star maps for lesser fools with dimmer lights to follow, like myself

I keep wondering what Nate thinks about checker boards, your cecil said he is very interested in that square pattern. Homeboy shrugs his shoulders when I ask him about it, as if to say, keep an open mind, I sould just like him to have a back up joy incase the power goes out. But does he like board games even if you have to let him invent his own game?

I hope i am not acting like I know your family life story but in a way i do

dam I keep editing this thing going to follow my highway hereo wireman and just.......................submit

heck Truck...I bitch about or to him more frequently than he'd like but he is a very tolerant sort and puts up with the 'buddhabitch' and assorted others.

Nate hates games, he doesn't even like to play basketball. No games for that boy. Not that I haven't tried to get him involved at some point or another but he has his own agenda and games are not it.

Speaking of the boy-man-child, he does love art and says he is doing 'it' just like daddy. I have asked him if I can 'show' some of said art to others besides Cec and myself....his answer, "No! It'sa secret." Otherwise, I would post some here on the Visual Board. I am still asking him occasionally but once he makes up his mind...o well.

Folks do know him and us because we want them to...Hah!

Have a great day ST...I am off to my blog to write about 'dawgs' (the four legged kind) in my life. Drop by anytime... No haiku today, I have dogs running through my mind.

Ah, Secret Art

my mind is racing on that concept

I was raised to be a gentleman gambler
my childhood was filled with games and gambling
I was on the golf team, so at fifth period I would head to the golf course
and gamble
then play gin rummy in the clubhouse and gamble
then in the evenings I would go to the pool hall or the bowling alley
and gamble

Then when I was about seventeen
(roughly coinciding with the time I started dropping acid)
I adopted an attitude of complete indifference to all those games
much like Nate's

Back to Secret Art
I have been trying to get Alicia to record some back-up parts for some tunes I will be doing in the studio. She has a great voice and the project I am doing asks for juvenile voices. But she's not having it. She'll crank it up in the shower, but she doesn't want to share it yet. I'm still working on her.

Then I have a friend who almost always comments on The Poet's Eye with an email. Some of these responese add great perspective and I have asked him to post his comments. He is not interested.

Secret Art.

nate an artist?
i knew it - i still remember that dream i once had where he and i, dressed in orange robes, were painting a car in wild colours...

Post by **sooZen** » February 16th, 2005, 4:10 pm

Lrod...secret artists are really the best kind. Most of us 'artistes' have huge (and fragile) egos to go along with the creative bent. Not Nate, he could care less what anyone thinks of him or his art but he does it every single day...without fail.

We are collecting his sketch books and dating them and perhaps someday he will let me show them. Mostly they are lists, in different colors of his favorite bands or movies or wrestlers or celebrities. Each thing on the list has its own color and the colors are specific to each thing. On one page are the lists and opposite, on another are the squares or mostly rectangles, each in a different color and each has meaning but he won't tell me the codex. Occasionally a star or a circle will appear but mostly the boxes. He used to be more into realism when he was young...Mickey Mouse with a penis and that sort of thing. All the cancer treatment art period is BLACK. I am sure that it was great therapy for him. We are into a much happier stage right now.

I hope Alicia will let you record her...I love children's art. Like what judih does with kids, it is so refreshing, unbiased and innocent. If only we all could retain our childishness...

Panta, I remember you telling me about that dream. I could let Nate paint the car but it would dry out a few markers....Hah! He actually hates the acrylic, finger paint, or poster paint media. Did a few brushstrokes early on but will only draw or write with crayons or markers (fat ones in Bold colors. Nothing pastel..."I'm a guy!") A new box of his media is his favorite thing other than money to go shopping for movies or music.

As for the robe...it musta been a past lifetime as he wouldn't even go to his graduation no matter how I begged because he would have to wear a 'dress' (insert robe here.) Pretty macho, that boy and nothing will change that.

I'm thinking it's about time for another Nate story somewheres... Hah!

Peace,
SooZen

I was not thinking of parchessi

I was thinking about video games like chess

I just liked the feel of those wooden pieces

But anyway, I have no doubt that Nate is a born artist

looking forward to the eye candy.

Post by **sooZen** » February 18th, 2005, 6:31 am

Jack, yeah, Nate (28 going on 29yrs now) got into some video games earlier in life, we had a Nintendo that he played around with but the computer, game boy or Xbox doesn't interest him at all...his life is spare as a bone as he loves his routine.

Noah, the oldest...different story...loves anything tech, techno...heck, if you can play, plug or 'puter it, he's there. He used to spin discs at raves..."DJ Muppetfucker" until Henson and Co. wrote him a cease and desist letter and threatened a lawsuit when he got famous...he was getting tired of the scene anyway (gettin' old. Hah!) but still is a computer 'plumber' in Austin as is his wife Jen. He now plays some role type game...I have no clue about although Dungeons and Dragons was an early thingee of his.

Peace,
SooZ
