Pee-wee Dinosaur
This is on my must-see list of Fun Campy Adventures. A trip to Cabazon for the 20-year-old in all of us. Just so we can go in the T-rex's mouth and say "Everyone I know has a big but. C’mon Simone, let’s talk about your big but." Then reenact the chase scene with Andy and Pee-wee, run around screaming Aaaaaah! Classic.

Demonstrate
Banners waving, shouting slogans, fists raised
What do they want? When do they want it?
Voices bark in unison
How many hours a day can a person stand to be tied
To a job?
Tied to machines, concrete, smoke and fumes
For slop on the table
For food in baby's belly
They hammer and pound week after week
All that's left at the end of the day
Pockets full of broken matches that will
Not light

Spider
Seeing one in my house
Get a cup to capture him
This process causes my mouth to taste of metal
Afraid spider may run onto my hand
Carry the critter outdoors quick before tang of aluminium engulfs
Seeing one outside I'd never be bothered but
Spiders indoors are another thing. Besides
I'm paranoid
What if
While I'm asleep a spider
Might crawl up inside me
Like the old woman who swallowed a fly
Get a cup to capture him
This process causes my mouth to taste of metal
Afraid spider may run onto my hand
Carry the critter outdoors quick before tang of aluminium engulfs

Spiders indoors are another thing. Besides
I'm paranoid
What if
While I'm asleep a spider

Finding Stillness
Alone
On forest path
Steps cushioned from sound
Soft blanketing
Layers of fallen needles muffling footfall
Create hushed shuffles
The trail leads to water's green edge
Then hypnotized by murmurs of mossy stone, what else to do
But stare at ripples
Thoughts start to come
Who am I? How do I
Learn to live my life
Alone?
Sharp crow caw jolts the mind's reflection.
A stream's reflection does not suffer the same
Break from reality
It keeps reflecting the world
Peering closer reveals more details
Closer still
Beneath its flow
The still depths
Hold mystery
I know not
If in the cool there
May be peace
Maybe monsters
Maybe nothing
But injured tangles of weed and murk
On forest path
Steps cushioned from sound
Soft blanketing
Layers of fallen needles muffling footfall
Create hushed shuffles
The trail leads to water's green edge
Then hypnotized by murmurs of mossy stone, what else to do
But stare at ripples
Thoughts start to come
Who am I? How do I
Learn to live my life
Alone?
Sharp crow caw jolts the mind's reflection.
A stream's reflection does not suffer the same
Break from reality
It keeps reflecting the world

May be peace
Maybe monsters
Maybe nothing

Easter Island
This makes me think of the lost peoples. Big mysteries. What were the statues for? How did they get here and what happened to the people who made them? I wonder about those ancient times that are long forgotten. Thor Heyerdahl tried to prove that the settlers of Easter Island came from South America. Maybe predecesors of the Incan people.

Blowing Out the Candle
Brian makes the funniest faces. Here is one he made while Isho was attempting to capture his image, blowing out a birthday candle. That's me in the corner. I only cracked up once I had seen the outcome of the photo. I married a goofball, but it's mutual and we make each other laugh.
