I remember when you emailed that picture to me. Out of the blue there it was. I never expected to get an email from you. I remember I got an email from Illuminara too right about the same time.

I spent a lot of time looking at that collage. But I closed that email account and lost it.

Thanks for sending it again.


I been thinking about applying for a poetic license. But I am not sure I could pass the physical. My chauffeur's license expires next year.. Going to feel naked with out that.

Poetic Licenses are really quite easy to get. The physical requirements are almost non-existent, the only sure thing is breathing on a reasonable schedule to defy death.

I know some cheap places that deal in those licenses if you dont mind forgeries..?

How much can I think before I become thoughtless?

I been meaning to tell you I like that tag line


I am going to feel naked without that Class A Chauffeur's license.
Going to be seventy next year I think I am going to have to give it up.

I suppose I will have be an undocumented poet if I can't get my poetic green card.

Thx, JT, about the tagline. just popped into me haid one day...

I had my 65th the 18th... been a long time coming. your 69'ing now, right? shit, what can one do except age. that's the easy part. i think the difficult part is making sense of it all.

g'night, amigo... it's headin' towards 11:pm right now... passed my bed time. ought to have a decent sleep with the weather cold and the winds blowin' pretty good.

Yes Dr King was right
Longevity has its blessing
It feels like spring today

Age is the easy part
I hardly mind it cause my mind was the first thing to go
Making sense of it
that is a tough one
"Stop making sense" trying to remember who used to say that.







The Abortion maybe my favorite book by Brautigan

I am going to be seventy this year. I got that part wrong.
My license expires next year.

1974 after silent woman's abortion
I was so lost,
like a rolling stone
with no place to stay
homeless
that license was my ticket to ride
meant I always had a home
if I had a ride a job a truck
to live out of
my ace in the hole
it was not just a job trucking
it was a whole life

like giving up my identity
maybe I ought to
get a motorcycle license
I been driving without one of those.

RE: picture caption for above

She won't listen to me because I have no idea she says. I guess she means on what it is to be a woman.

So I get pissed off and tear up a couple of dollar bills, and say
"Well I know one thing it is not about money."

She leaves but does not slam the door.

If I knew two things I would be twice as smart.

description of books and newspaper

Geoff Parson's book, 18.76 USD a lot of money for me. well spent thinking about stuff and what stuff I want to spend my money on.

Brave New World Revisited, no idea what it is doing in the picture just a book I am reading. The Food Book is diet aid it keeps me conscious. No idea why it was there, just happened to be there, the same with The Bible Handbook, The Suzuki Motorcycle manual, the Encyclopedia of Judaism, The Crown of Feathers, and the Word Book. the word book is always near by, my treasure.

So I guess there is no composition, except for the torn money. Which I was trying to fit together because I could really really use the four dollar bills. I am out of tapioca. I just cooked up the last of it.

A good picture, it inspired me to post mine above my bed, where I'm dreaming I s'pose unless I hit up the couch.

A description...my gold box from my Grandma, a picture going around a big oak tree which is a way to vision my childhood and hers, we're linked over the same oak. Small vials of oils, jasmine, vanilla and cherry. A book collection that I'm working on cause they have similar styles...a Wuthering Heights, red one I read recently A Portrait of a Lady, a Jules Verne, A Red Badge of Courage, Websters, A Black Dove one, and an angel candle. etc.

Emma was a good old girl
just a cowgirl from the the planes of Ukraine
wretched refuse of teeming shores
she gave her heart to the Columbia the gem of the ocean
And we threw her out deported her to Russia stripped her naturalized citizenship
because she "spoke truth to power" {old quacker saying from 17th century england} spoke out against Mr. Wilson's war.
She got pluck she scolded Lenin about the right of free speech which he rejected as a bourgeois notion,so Lenin deported her too. So she became a stateless person. Canada finally took her in. And after her death the government of "The United Snakes" relented and let her friends bring her body home for burial.




I got some pictures of my maternal grandma . In almost everyone she is wearing an apron and holding a large wooden spoon. Her greatest joy in life was to feed me. She loved to watch me eat.
Most powerful woman in my life. Gertrude Stein reminds me of her.

Yeah not so much in to squeezing as dancing
Thanks for those pictures and words.
I always liked that song
me and my folks you and your folks?
sly and the family?
