Thinking of Dziga

Birthday Meme

Encouraged by chefx, I did the birthday meme:

Your strength: Your intuition Your weakness: You put yourself last Your power color: Rose Your power symbol: Cloud Your power month: June

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

I'm not sure about the rose, cloud, or June, but I know a lot of people who would agree with the rest. Interesting.

Song Shares

Inspired by the abstract writing on art that my partner has been doing, as well as her foray into sharing music mixes over the internet, I've decided to experiment with some writing of my own as a way of introducing songs that matter to me. Sometimes I'll compose something that reads like a review. Other times I'll get creative and use the song as the basis for flights of fancy. Let me know what you think of the music I share.

Clambering Onto the Bandwagon

The machine is large. The mass spills downward. There are too many parts. It will never get off the ground. But it's starting to roll, ignoring your lack of faith. You cover your eyes, peer out from between your fingers. And then the tires aren't touching anymore. Will it clear the powerlines? The engine sputters. The fuselage shakes. Yes! The left wing tip drops. It's coming back around. You can see the pilot. She opens the side window on the cockpit and extends her arm. A charge courses down your spine.
