Gnarly, dude.
The sun has a nerve to shine today.
Two days of rain were giving me the well needed excuse to
be invisible-
Now with this bright sun,
unlike itsy bitsy spider,
I don't feel like climbin' up no spout.
I was always of the belief
that if you didn't have anything particularly bright and uplifting to say,
you should basically piss off.
But for all of the bright, sunlit days of creativity
and sparkle,
there is an equal amount of time
mentally spent in a cool,
mossy, dark place,
where the fog swirls,
and rocks sweat.
A place where batteries are charged...
Garlic, ginger, turmeric, thyme, lemon grass, cilantro, chili,
black pepper, oregano, cinnamon, basil, rosemary, onion, mustard, cumin, sage, saffron...
There will be no more rocket fuel powered lift-offs.
You must flap your wings like Icarus & Dedalus...
Watermelon kisses.
Black chocolate
and rhythm.
Colors and breath.
Bright sunlight
I'm not ready yet.
" I am not flying, I am falling with style..."
-Buzz Lightyear, Toy Story
Till next time... 'Mela
