Slow Dancing With Mars
Ground Control to Mars
Slow dancing with Mars after a long hot week. That’s how I spent my night. First I hooked up the Electric Purr and poured myself into noise with Mars coming through the roof spilling its red energy into my music. I had no idea what I was doing, but that’s part of the bliss. Flying blind. And the fact that when it’s over it’s over. I record something on the Looper, play over it a few rounds, then wipe it clean. Do something new. It’s nice to shed time.
My Fan Club:
I ran long late at night. Mars is big and orange and close to the earth, making sleep difficult and stirring the air with psychic agitation. I lay awake binging on Game of Thrones. Sometimes awake. Sometimes asleep. At one point I wake and a blond man is bleeding from the neck after being jousted. I have no idea who he is or if he’s important. My daughter asked me who I think is “hot” on the show. After much thought, I realized I find only one character relatively hot - Khal Drogo. Of course I do. Because I love a Beauty and the Beast narrative, and the story of him and Khaleesi most certainly is one. And Khaleesi as a young girl survivor who rises up and kicks ass is my favorite female character, nor surprisingly. I’m pretty predictable. Please don’t give me spoilers. I’m still on season one. I work hard and long hours . . .
Dream Team:
The Fur Sharks are my Fan Club. They love when I play electric guitar. The photos above are of them chilling while I played last night. It’s good to chill when the weather is burning and Mars is scorching our brains.
