San Anto


i had the epiphany that
i have a San Antonio chola body -
the barrel belly and flabby haunches,
the most overflowing of muffin tops
rising over too-tight pants or
(godforbid) little shorts.
always with flip flops.
perhaps i should just start dressing the part to fit in.

sparkling river night

Water is the great conductor of energy - electrical, spiritual....rivers are currents of nature energy. I'm convinced the river charges everyone's experience who's on it - floating in a boat, an inner tube, or sitting by the banks - the constantly-flowing current of the river draws energy unto it and naturally charges the air with the nature hum of spirit energy.

For this reason people go to the river to party - they are naturally drawn to the invigorated energy of the riverspace. That's why you always find beer cans on the banks and in the eddies of Texas rivers. That's why tubers on the Guadalupe always drink, that's why cajuns party at the waterbank, and don't forget those Mississippi riverboats. On the same token, cities with rivers coursing through them are naturally spiritually charged. Wouldn't you say all the major cities of the world straddle a river?

Just for the sheer sapiness, here is a clip from the classic chick flick Chocolat in which Johnny Depp is very sexy on a gypsy riverboat. Skip to 3:35 for Johnny.

schoolgirls frozen in time

ursula's room hadn't changed a bit over the 13 years.
It was a comforting constant. I recharged there this week.
Reconnected and nourished those roots that reach deep
under the stately mission limestone of Jefferson High School.
Grandma's alma mater.

fancy night out


last night was a decadent, uproarious night at olorosa on a cold night on an empty South Alamo street. one for the ages.
