just a shadow I once knew

Oh – spinning heart and mind. Yesterday I received a wild offer from out of the deep, deep blue – to which I said, “Yes.” Last night, middle of night, my only company was, “No.” A while ago, on the cushion – home for quiet – kids, neighbors, hooligans, minor birds, beaurocrats, bobcats, and for all I know, wallabies, were howling and yowling “Yes” “No” “Yes” “No” – and somewhere in the faraway background The BeeGees with, “Blaming It All On the Nights On Broadway.”

Composing here now, having bowed to the cushion nine times and enjoyed two large coffees, I’m like Alice – falling, falling, falling, stepping throught the looking glass, only my tail lingering on the other side of no tomorrow.

I don’t believe I’ve told you that as of yesterday I am officially back within the coverage of the Kaiser Medicare Advantage plan, and have been assigned, as my Primary, one Dr. Wu.

Me and Steely Dan.
