On the Ocean&#8230;
I am crazy busy.  In a once in a lifetime kind of way.  So its spectacular, hard as hell, exhausting, complex, full of excitement, worry and love for what I am doing.  And for the people who&#8217;ve made this happen and keep making it happen. I am blessed&#8230;

Point your bow to the clouds and keep on til the morning star&#8230;
I&#8217;ve been hard at work on some amazing new projects, but in the meantime, to feed my soul, I scribbled these down:
We All Have A Little Envy In Us

angry

The Kiss - Gustav Klimt
Age teaches me patience - I sky dived, swam with sharks and did a marathon the year I turned 30.  I am now approaching 40, with my 38th birthday coming up May 29, and the most daring thing I can think of doing is falling in love.
Huh, who knew?
Peace and Much [...]]]></description>

A discussion of the song, decades later
I remember my sister and I begging my brother to play &#8220;The Killing of Georgie&#8221; over and over.  Little girls with big hearts, we would sing this at the top of our lungs and cry over the last lines - &#8220;Oh Georgie&#8217;s dead - don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

Happy St. Patrick&#8217;s Day!
I celebrate being a Celt on this day, my roots deep in green shamrocks.  Its evident in my red hair and my innate storytelling brilliance.  And my utter lack of modesty!  Hahaha&#8230;
We Irish are fierce, and when we fight, its not to win, its to destroy.  We have no fear and we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Buddha&#8217;s Head</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
For D:
Buddha&#8217;s head
Like my heart
Shattered
Scattered
Reckless handling
Mindless rambling
Explaining air
Over and over
No tap dance
No sliding out
I pin you
Caught in thought
Called for behavior
You scramble
Crab-ways
From my glare
Cold hard and disgusted
Buddha&#8217;s body
Disconnected
Disrespected
Accidental
Your act was not
Incidental
Your motives were
Monumental
Cruel to joy
Poorly chosen
The glass before you
Was never empty
Overflowing
Abundant
Accepting
You lost me
Throat dry?
Peace,
Melissa

Silly moralist - tricks are for kids!  Now how does the man who busted a prostitution ring, of bargain hookers, end up with a $5,500/night call girl in Washington?  Oh, yah, politician&#8230;hmmm&#8230;
Now if he told his kids or wife they had to cut back or couldn&#8217;t get that new bicycle, dress or Playstation, [...]]]></description>

Check out this trailer.  Very interesting&#8230;
If I hadn&#8217;t already had a healthy suspicion of the Clintons, I know now for sure I&#8217;m not interested in voting for such vicious and ungrateful people.
Go Obama!

Melissa
