Today was a
kind and gentle day; even Miso's hunting involved no
prey. Between editing a
magazine and booking a club, the previous 8
months were hectic. I learned a lot but the
busy-ness sort of threw me off those things which
really nourish me--community, writing, and making
art. Still trying to find a new rhythm, today was
a good start: played records
on the sidewalk down in Fremont at Adria and Sarah's street
sale, then hung out on the block with Jesse and John, juggling and chatting
at a dead end as the sun set among puffy white
clouds. Playing with Miso, we learned a little
something about cats--their pupils go from slits
to instantly dilated just before they pounce. It
was sort of scary. I wonder if it triggered some genetic
memory, the stored experience of ancestors
who survived seeing those eyes go wide after being
mistaken for lunch. |
