theres a storm brewing..
its hot and muggy but the sun has disappeared behind dark clouds… fat rain drops are splattering against the sidewalk…and a hot breeze is blowing ….
i like summer…
the hot
the storms
the way it causes the pavement to buckle…
everyones gone…leaving half dressed interns to run the city
the slips of dresses…
the shirtless boys…
the dark sunglasses…
the panting dogs…
the top off… with sweat dripping down your back
the sex of it…
i have a feeling that this storm isnt gonna cool anything down…
the heat index is hi the air quality is low…
we’re all thinking…
“do the right thing mookie… do the right thing…”

Phil you nut. I lost power tonight for three hours. Lying in the dark. Brooding. Way too dependent, we are, on our electiic lives.

“It was one of those hot dry Santa Anas that come down through the mountain passes and curl your hair and make your nerves jump and your skin itch. On nights like that every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands’ necks. Anything can happen.”

I knew you’d show up, Hammer. What did he tell me this a.m. in email? Am I allowed to quote? “…I’m not interested in putting on a show for the currrent incarnation of “the scene.” Don’t need the affirmation of the masses. Don’t much give a damn what they think.” To quote Eric Burdon who was quoting Bo Diddley: “Just show me to the bar.”

Wow. Everything about this post, including the comments, the videos, the nicknames in quotation marks …. wow and wow … and WOW.
I’m not a fan of summer, but based on this, I might have to change my mind.
Hope you are well and happy. xx & love. Shalom.

I want for my nickname to be Butterscotch, but then what would you use as your safe word?
