Mary told us a a riddle
or was it a clue from a cross word?
or was it a clue from a cross word?
it turns into another story
the answer is
a spiral staircase
I’m enchanted by that
walking the road behind Kayla’s house
behind this urban place
with some shops on a strip
slopes up and around
to a beautiful LA vista
a surprise rural canyon
rolling hills empty and gold
a couple pointy junipers
and dry yellow grass
climbing the clean sidewalk is like
marble
a spiral staircase in a fairytale castle
marble
a spiral staircase in a fairytale castle
up into air smelling like eucalyptus, magnolia
we've been singing songs from
Snow White and Pinocchio all day
we've been singing songs from
Snow White and Pinocchio all day
I'm weeesshinng
walking in a wispy wonderland
walking in a wispy wonderland
pink sunset then mist over the moon
we talk about Rebecca Solnit’s essay
on Virginia Woolf’s “darkness”
it's about walking, and hoping
and her "the future is dark" quote
we keep singing
I'm weeesshinng
I'm weeshing
between talking
and I do wish
I do hope
and her "the future is dark" quote
we keep singing
I'm weeesshinng
I'm weeshing
between talking
and I do wish
I do hope
