I like to drive slow....creep along and daydream, sing really loud, to Primal Scream and Led and Stones, chain smoke until the ashtray looks like a Blooming Onion, and flash two-fingered peace signs at the folks cussing me in silent screams as they zip past me.I like to ride in fast cars. To pitch my contacts out the window in an act of littering defiance so the highway is a blur. To feel my hair madly tangling with every mile we fly, blonde speghetti in the wind.
I like to dance to make believe music. To dip low, and long, and pretend I'm a ballerina on top of a vinyl jewelry box. To dance in the street barefoot, under full moons and pouring rains and streetlamps sweltering in the heat. I like to dance really, really slow to fast music, and lightening fast to so~slow~it's~a~lulabye~music. I like to be asked to dance. And sometimes I like to say no.
I like to laugh until I cry, choke, cough, spew beer everywhere. Until I can't remember why I'm laughing and have to cross my legs so I don't accidently tinkle. Hell, I like to laugh so much, I don't really care if I wet my pants, send my gum richocheting into your lap, get the hiccups. I just like to laugh.
I like to Love. Hard and fateful. Ridiculously comitted to the moment. Wreckless and silly.
Forever can be a really, really short time...
You gotta make the most of it.

I'm here again at this little hospital by the ocean my beloved sister..
Its summer here and hot.
There is a snake that lives in the courtyard outside my office door... He's black with a fiery red belly and smiles hello to us as we eat our little packed lunches so neatly wrapped...
Tongue forked in the sun... he brings me news of the sea... Of white breasted gulls flying too close to cyan waves... Of worlds waiting within the footprints of a crab or the shattered whorl of a broken shell....
So often, at days end, as i wander along the wild mouth of the ocean... I think of you.... And the butterflies... turning the faintest whisper of hope... into the wild, living hands of love...
Always love,
M

Tonguetrip....Pleased to meet ya! Pardon the absence, sometimes I forget to pay my internet bill!
SweetSpado! Wooo~hoo! Clink ya back, friend!
MAithri...As if, always, you were meant to sprinkle words on me like hot summer accidental rain at the end of an endless bike ride....
I've fallen off the earth...
And just doodled randomly, the forked tongue of the lazy snake around a heart....
And somehow, long before,
I read your words,
I think you knew....
that even that,
the lazy snake,
feared by petticoated women in high heels,
and Big Bad boys,
is nothing more,
than the accidental blessing....
Muah, my friend!
Karlette! Hi! That's so sweet!
