Another poem...

...begs reading. You might need to maximize its format [larger/smaller] for optimal viewing. You'll know it when you see it.

More pearls and Albert Einstein


This may be the end of the pearls for now. This manipulation, when I am in that sleepy-but-still-pondering place, reminds me of Einstein in his elevator being hauled through time/space — which makes me think of the poem that sent me off into the back alleys of the internets to read about the man in his less lofty moments.

More pearls [with lyrics & interruption]


After a while / you just can't help but smile
As you watch things go around / mmm mmm (lost to time)

Once in a blue moon / it all goes away
The clouds clear / I can see my way

—rp/ch Coconut Grove, c. 1971

...and a Florida-only fly-thing-lette walks into my shot. Just lucky, I guess.
