"..there upon your wall, forever in my view, ses monuments, all the places I will never go with you."
A warm sadness moved slightly in my stomach and then across my face as I looked at the vista splayed out from Sacre Coeur. A City stretched out glistening as a spring rain. The injustice of being there and without her... was striking. But exactly to whom injustice was done by this I have to admit was lost on me. Surely I must have felt cheated for her absence, and yet in no small part vindicated. I had made my way here and she had fallen by the wayside. An echo of a memory of a scratched up record. So I decided to build her from memory and place her there next to me. Her hair moving the way it had its tendency to. Her smirk and idle wit and condecension wreathed about my ersatz copine. Always to my right, always joking. When the time came to leave, she walked the other way.
So be it.. and so was the show. Friends recovering from surgery, friends preparing to leave, and at the center of it all of course my indomitable libido.
Summer Pop sets and and some more upbeat Alt Country will be fixtures all this summer. More guests and interviews. And the best indie show on KTUH. Stay tuned and welcome to the new blog.
