the vicisitudes of life
meaning the ebb and flow of life like the ocean waves and the moons low and high tides....the dea l with the house fell throuh ....each day without my dog more of my heart rips out...i bought a couple of little tarragon plants at a supermarket..not here but down further and nibble on the leaves....
Cherries have come into season and boy are they treat.
You know what else bothers me about here in the souh is he south is their pride in their ring cakes. I dont think there is a person i meet who doesnt have some form of diabetes and yet day in and day out they keep baking their cakes...the same way my mother wore tight fiting shoes...their whole identity is all wraped up in it.
But lo and behold...guess which Gods of the whitehouse are promoting the dependence on pharmaceuticles and pesticides...Rumsfeld and Ashcroft..qnd bush and cheney alwys back Rummy.
The Christian Right is so against abortion and gay marrriage but eatng poison food and drugs as in pharma is OK. And the liberals are always depressives for bringing this up. the way the media works to brain wash people into believing they need to pop aspirins like gumdrups and take their cough syrups and use their kleenex is just the stepping stone to those who take meth and decide to solve their problems that way. you cant pick up a best seller novel without every character taking an aspirin at some point...evey cop.....
...and then by them....why not just lie down on the couch and learn how well we are doing in iraq 'building democracy' while they cant even get a clean glass of water...how many years later?
And yet man has to think postively to make him/herself happy to survive.
orange moon
There is an orange full moon in Tennessee tonight. Whatever does that mean? Portend, i think the poets say.I have built a 3'x3' raised garden bed, planted a few herbs like basil and dill, cilantro and stuck a tomatoe plant over in in a corner hoping I'd have some luck. Well, depending on what one calls luck I now have a tomatoe plant that is at least 13 square feet and hangong off the sides covering everything in sight!
Alas. I've got to get myself a digital. Bought a cheapo once at walmarts and it worked for about a day.
What is imagination for anyway???? Imagine clumps of bitter green tomatoes turning bright red and juicy served sliced with stunted basil thinnings....olive oil and salt....
