I made a sale to the bullpen manager of the dodgers.....Jokingly I asked him for tickets to the game since the dodgers were in town to play the phillies.....the phillies sell out every night and tickets are hard to come by for a reasonable price.
I got 4 tickets behind the plate...and a ball autographed by the players manager and coaches....met the bullpen coach in the pen before the game.
Took my oldest, my girlfriend, and her son.
My son and her son hit it off.
Hamels pitched and phillies won.
It was a magical night.
Now I met her because of a wrong number....kinda magical....but the magic just seems to keep happening.
Now is it that we make our own magic.....or is it more like fate?

Hey, BE? Which disturbing and opposing forces? There's quite a few in the above excerpt.

I think that is the case.let us sit by tepid waters
that lap the slimy leg of dock
embalmed in the autumn of an evening,
amid the growing ripples
and wiry bamboos
(broken in youth
like the teeth of a mutant)
why there is an argument
about the nature of the God
among the gluons of my hemispheres
and of the matter of
the moist heat on

Let us sit
and let us listen to
the clickings of the pool,
and in the still that lies
between the bow and string,
sleep.

Mur...enjoy your time. Glad you met someone you can click with and it's steeped in magic.

I think the dude was referring to the bow and string- but I could be wrong. The world of loss is littered with broken spirits. Know what I mean?Hey, BE? Which disturbing and opposing forces?

In every corner, wildflowers bloom.
In the front garden, trees
Offer their branches for drying clothes;
Where I eat, a wine glass can float
In the springwater's chill.
From the portico, a hidden path
Leads to the bamboo's darkened groves.
Cool in a summer dress, I choose
From among heaped piles of books.
Reciting poems in the moonlight, riding a painted boat . . .
Every place the wind carries me is home.

Nah, that was a dishonest fuck talking through a lame ass sock puppet, so there is no need to take what he says seriously.Cartoonsyndicate wrote:nah. that was a consensus appraisal.
