Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Asking for prayers if you pray and healing energy for Lightning Rod. He isn't well right now. Thank you! Hopefully he'll have access to this thread to read your greetings.

thinking of you, L-rod, with intense hopes that you'll find strength to heal yourself - engage mind and force to ease discomfort and feel your inner clay revive

Sending out my prayers on the new day.
Hoping for good health and light for you LR.

My meditations are with him.

His voice is almost gone, he said. He's having a hard time breathing. He's going to the hospital.

Wishing him well! Hope he reads your greetings!

auch!... I´m about to drink mate, I´ll made the rite in his honour! hugs...

Here's a prayer your way, L-Rod, that you gain the strength you need
to carry on...

please keep us posted doreen
thank you

praying for you Clay
please keep on breathing for me bro

clay, my thoughts are with you. healing energy for sure. your work isn't finished; there is still more poetry to live and write..

hey, doreen & l-rod: how is he?, how are you...???

looking for an update
fast dynamo of wishes to him

All I know at this point is that Christye, his sister, was taking him to the hospital today. She has my email addresses and ph # and I asked her to keep me posted. When I hear something, I'll let you all know. She said he could barely speak, was having a hard time breathing and couldn't talk over a whisper.

Keep your good thoughts sent his way and I'll report anything I hear. I wanted to talk to him on the phone but he said he couldn't talk because his voice was gone.

I hope he can still read.
I write this here for him for him to read when he is feeling better.

Boy oh boy Doreen always knows how to scare the dogshit out of me. I sat here looking at Texas from the second story of the house The Bear built for my baby sister. He used to be a big old friendly Texan before he married my sister.

Yeah I pictured you in the ICU wired up and looking out of a hospital window at he skyline of Dallas.

Please write when you can

I need a good metaphor for prayer

keeping you in the dynomo of my heart
I don't know what I would do without you
there would only be jimboloco left as the only man on litkicks whoops on studio eight who can still give me the adrenalin shakes

love from your extended family bro.
I think I had the same thing a month ago
was not a virus fortunately
I hope you getting good care
not sure what my prayers are worth

I look at them and think being a horse ain't so bad,
or maybe an elephant
I don't understand Buddhism sometimes
seems like being born a human is the most enlightened form that universe can take on this planet.

I wish you was old enough for medicare.
keep on keeping on
I hope they got the magic bullet for you
ramble on
we got a lot to write for yet to go
if freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose
we still got plenty left to lose
wishing you love peace and health from New Berlin.

Second thoughts of first thoughts

Sorry Doreen please forgive me
I must have been crazy with preemptive mourning


The fear factor slipped out of Freud shit
Sounds like I am blaming you
When I am in fact grateful to you
For keeping me posted on his condition
If ever a post cried out for emoticons that one did
I should have used the eye wink and razz when I called you out situation normal I suppose
Even so
Sorry not my intention to high jack your thread
I just imagined the worst, my imaginings
Are not your problems
I hope you can let me slide
And shine on any guilt trips I might have unconsciously tried to lay on you

“What should a Jew do if he is not a pious man, he should act the pious man, something’s going to know the intention behind the intention” paraphrase I.B. Singer

I feel better now
I hope Clay has what I had a couple of months ago, some antibiotics, inhalers and a good P.A. and it was all over in a week or so.

Just checking in to say I have no news to report. Sorry.

I wrote to his sister and to him asking for an update but haven't heard back from either, yet. On a positive note, I saw one recent post on FB by Lrod. And I don't think he has a laptop to use at the hospital (though I may be wrong). Somehow from seeing that post, my mind thought maybe he's home.

I hope, too, that it's something like what you had, Jack, and is easily curable. I'm sorry to hear you got sick but happy to hear that you got it cleared up!

(love the photos you posted!)
