between asleep & awake



i'm dreaming of dreamcatchers

by any breath your lungs could store,

sometimes, on a day off, i might sleep in late and then sit on my computer for a while drinking coffee and sometimes shut my eyes because i am groggy. then i will light a pretty smelling candle and open the windows and play dress up with the clothes on the floor before i put them away and then eat some cereal and then get back in bed and read edna st. vincent millay. sometimes, not always. but definitely today.

the birth of cool

faithful lover

the moon came to me last night
with a sweet question.

she said,
"the sun has been my faithful lover
for millions of years.

whenever i offer my body to him
brilliant light pours from his heart.

thousands then notice my happiness
and delight in pointing
toward my beauty.

hafiz,
is it true that our destiny
is to turn into light
itself?"

and i replied,

dear moon,
now that your love is maturing,
we need to sit together
close like this more often

so i might instruct you
how to become
who you
are.

best coast at the getty

whose comin' with me to see BEST COAST at the Getty FO FREE?! july 9th. save the date.
and omg bobb is wearing a zoot suit shirt? i'minlove.

burn

living for almost a month now with burners has really started to change my perspective, on lots of things. community, success, recreation, drugs, burning man and seeing what a group can accomplish when you put your efforts together. i'm very encouraged to be surrounded by people who are both responsible adults and free spirited twenty-somethings at the same time.
we are still trying to figure out this whole thing together.
and i might be convinced to attend burning man next year.
just maybe.
