memes usually suck. so i've here attempted to make one that doesn't suck so very much. maybe a little.
1) what moves you?
Beauty. (that's economy of words for you).
2) favorite vegetarian recipe? (please post here...unless of course, it's top secret).
nutritional yeast pasta.
fry onions and celery in smart balance or another vegan butter substitute. add handfulls of nutritional yeast until the the butter clumps. add enough water to make the sauce smooth. season with salt, pepper and parsely. serve over a pasta that can hold a lot of sauce. i find the best kind is wagon wheel pasta.
3) if you could go sailing with three, horny, naked individuals who found you windly attractive and would consent to just about anything, in a boat full of baby jesus butt plugs (

ROMANCE DE LA LUNA, LUNA
A Conchita García Lorca
La luna vino a la fragua
con su polisón de nardos.
El niño la mira, mira.
El niño la está mirando.
En el aire conmovido
mueve la luna sus brazos
y enseña, lúbrica y pura,
sus senos de duro estaño.
Huye luna, luna, luna.
Si vinieran los gitanos,
harían con tu corazón
collares y anillos blancos.
Niño, déjame que baile.
Cuando vengan los gitanos,
te encontrarán sobre el yunque
con los ojillos cerrados.
Huye luna, luna, luna,
que ya siento sus caballos.
Niño, déjame, no pises
mi blancor almidonado.
El jinete se acercaba
tocando el tambor del llano.
Dentro de la fragua el niño,
tiene los ojos cerrados.
Por el olivar venían,
bronce y sueño, los gitanos.
Las cabezas levantadas
y los ojos entornados.
Cómo canta la zumaya,
¡ay, cómo canta en el árbol!
Por el cielo va la luna
con un niño de la mano.
Dentro de la fragua lloran,
dando gritos, los gitanos.
El aire la vela, vela.
El aire la está velando.

swiss chard.
