here are the corresponding drawings from my trip to Sanny Franny.
I am almost done with my song-
it’s entitled ‘YOUR OWN ECONOMY’

sorry my life is shifting as we speak.
Its been hard to update the blog.

Matt is still away on tour and Jon told me he is working seriously on a side project with our friend Robert.
I’m not sure what the name is yet.

I suppose its just as well; and its helping me focus on my writing.
Mucho- la vida
so WHAT ARE THIEVES?

What are Thieves?

Draw an amoeba-like circle on a sheet of graph paper.
draw lots of them-at medium 2 inch increments apart

Then, circle-outwards with parallel lines like a contour map of a land elevation- AN EXTREMELY
dense concentration of little circles my proximate loves

There was a wonderful sense of love, but also of parting, last night Jon Matt and I said our goodbyes. Matt is going on tour with a mob of other kids in his collective, I think 2.5 bands are going with them -Letters in Binary, Spitting Cobra, and some other combination of the dudes.
There goodbye show was tonight.
I spent a lot of time chatting with the friendlies. I’m very proud to say that I realize my place now in social situations. And I also know how to relax and have a decent convo.
Look up bittersweet in my history books first page of glossary/ definitions and you’ll see a big naked picture of me deep throating jon.

chuckle…..

excuse me…. echhk hkemmm,..

I’ll post next from San Francisco.
