Part 1:
You tell me- how can I not invoke the cosmos when I’m writing? It’s a tricky thing to keep at bay when I have no control of the tides.
How can I be expected to leave the moon where it was? These arms gotta hold for something and who wants a bunch of armor or perishable groceries taking up space when tales of Venus are tugging at your tongue.
The epic love story lays in the ether, wondrously waiting it’s bounce. That finicky thing.
These hips of mine await the rhythm- the pulse of ozone before the pour.
Perpetual motion.

These songs we create. These sketches we doodle. These seemingly insignificant sweet little diddys’. With the proper frame work they are great achievements because we allow our minds to wander into realms of the unseen and uncharted. We let roam and go spin cycle. We free range.
Here we are now, who knows for how long, standing, sitting, laying on this earth. We are fashioned to make. Fashioned to connect. Built to link- in the physical, in the mental. Here we are, the trees bare gifts, our hearts and minds the same. We are abundance from the smallest of ways: humming while we prepare food, to creating feats like the Sistine Chapel. La Sagrada Familia. And here we are still.
Even if you don’t think you’re very good. Even if a white piece of paper seems daunting- it is your duty, in a sense, to exercise your creative mind. So open up and sing and feel real good.
Pidgie, that was a lovely little interlude! I hear Natalie Merchant in your singing voice, and in your writing style, I get a sense of Arundhati Roy.
These are the creative moments the world needs more of. Thanks for sharing!
Peace & Blessings,

What better inspiration than George Gershwin! You have a lovely voice. I like the song a lot. What a great way to start the day! Thank you. 😀
Aw thank you. He is lovely. Hugely influential.
That’s sweet that you’re a singer as well. Ever post that stuff?
‘Singing’ is a very strong word to describe the noises I make. 🙂
ha! you funny. *peep peep*
Very nice, my lady. 🙂
Thanks, cookie (;
