the Watusis

August 16th, Sunday, 2009, was about as perfect a day as it gets, containing within a sunlit space in time the full range of emotions underscored with plenty of "We are on our own now" Polaroids. As a wrap from God's film crew, my friend the Radical Rascal, pulled over alongside Heaven and the Watusi Longhorn came rumbling up from the wash to greet us.

Nina,
I have always loved this particular painting.
And I was moved to drop you a note and I choose to place it in the low down box, second from the left.
Low down enough so I would have to bend to put it in and you would need to bend to take it out.
A bit like bowing to each other, under the clear sky.
And that is what I wanted to say to you away from the intellectualism which I am unable to contribute to.
Just wanted to acknowledge you for the light that you shine, that you coax to life, and that you keep aflame.
Bless you.

I am so glad! A secret special place. I don't know what they're talking about either and like it over here better, there's a beautiful circle of light coming from somewhere and you and I are inside it together. Love you my friend. Bless whatever it was that had you post on VO so long ago.
