arthur & george

This book my companion
Of vacation & little plane trips

Novel based on true facts
England and 20th century begins
George Edalji (Aydlji) and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The protagonists

Barnes is a very different Barnes
From the Barnes on The Lemon Table, or Flaubert’s Parrot

But his words go stylishly fine with Conan Doyle, the Epoch
And George’s British stoicism

A fine novel with delicious tints of tensions
As on the best crime fiction
A sweet after taste of a good case of Sherlock Holmes
early named... Sheridan Hope!

full moon fever

the moon rises full high above
while the night temperature drops cold
like a cycle
they balance together
they come & they go

nature
& my lonely body yearns for an affectionate touch

i wonder if by now
have i forgotten how to kiss?
how to caress?
how to warmly hold a hand - fingers interweaved?
and how to truly, someone, love?

solitude can hurt a woman’s body
sensual dissatisfaction
leaking from the physical
and damaging my soul

drip drip drip
no touch

another cold winter night
laying on my bed
embracing myself
with my colder own

a half woman
unilateral climax
passion
for a long time
has been cut off


also, i found this post back from april 2006, title:
esta mañana
of pencil, of paper, of another sort of love

you are so far: señor sol

winter solstice day
today

your warmth doesn't reach us
the distance makes my days shorter
and this long night, colder

oh sol! estas tan lejos...

Thu., Dec. 21, 2006
marks the solstice—the beginning of winter in the Northern Hemispher
and summer in the Southern Hemisphere

italian made: panettone

this is my favorite italian 'Boun Natale' bread
Mexico gave Christmas a beautiful look
with 'La Flor de Noche Buena'
and Italy gave it a wonderful taste
with the Panettone (recipe linked)
I usually stock up on Panettone at Trader Joe's
my favorite grocery store!
got some German Schloss Biebrich wine while there too
recommended as well

Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo
thanks to A & L for coming around and eating with me

spiritualized

i found these photographs of myself from 2001!
when obviously i had not much to do
but to take pictures of myself
with my new spiritualized t-shirt *yawn*
yet, i am glad i've found them!
a reminder of
& yeah! spiritualized!!!!
another superb band

because they rock!
& i still proudly wear their t-shirt
a present that perro got me back in london
at one of their shows in 2001

i have seen spiritualized 3 times live
once in a small record store in San Diego
& the t-shirt, somehow still fits, i am just not as vain anymore

make yourself a musical favor because
it is an orgasmic performance!
an spiritualized one
stay on queu till the finale, and...
come together... oh! yes!

the highlight: the weather man
"we didn't bargain for this, we moved to Southern California"
