As someone who has been running in the same place for almost 43 years, this speaks to me! I love the John Lennon Clip - Joyce, you are so fun and young at heart, I'm determined to meet you in person someday! You're one of the hippest people I have encountered, without trying to be 'hip."
I bet you remember this guy, Joyce! I remember hearing him on a jazz radio station when I was about 19 (with a fascination for LSD and losing control) . I was hooked on him ever since... the right combo of beat, spooky, and the most uniquely bizarre, playful, weird stuff I'd ever heard. So glad he is still found on YouTube! That deep rumbly voice, so rich... and all the weird sound and musical accompaniments - I wish I had seen him and got to see the visuals. There's a great video with him, Leonard Cohen, and Coltrane. He has a bunch of these Word Jazz vocal performances and so much more on YT. Ken Nordine. Your name, Word Jazz, is perfect - you're in good company, even if he is on the 'other side.'
That piece by Emily is outstanding, thanks!
A new adventure is general a good thing, and I hope it goes well.
Nice poem
I'm excited for your new adventure, and glad you have landed on a peaceful decision about the Mexico trip. Love the poem!!! 💜
