<what's all this about Eureka? That's where I live...>
California's home,
home from the hill and back from
the back of beyond.
The back of beyond
And then a few miles down the
Dirt track to nowhere.
Dirt track to nowhere
Meanders calmly through trees
and ends at your door.
And ends at your door
That letter which was sent
So long, long ago
So long, long ago
Home was where I shared living
I am going back
I am going back
to places in my future
There to find myself.
*paraphrase of a poem by Pablo Neruda
There to find myself
Good book and bottle of wine
Shall be today's quest
Shall be today's quest:
A cure for a French student
With panic attacks.
With panic attacks
deep breathing often helps a
person, French or not.
Person, French or not,
Wanted to dress in a French
Housemaid's uniform.
Housemaid's uniform
required to work here. No
slip-shod appearance!
Slip-shod appearance,
is that what they say about
my clothing choices?
My clothing choices
Are very conservative
But I love color
but I love color
more than monochromatic
except in photos
Except in photos
I don't mind ragged out wear
Just for gardening
Just for gardening
Do I don a large straw hat
I don't want to burn
I don't want to burn
I have darker skin at that
So, not to worry
so, not to worry
about that which you cannot
control is quite hard.
Control is quite hard,
So let go, drop the reins and
Give the horse freedom.
Give the horse freedom
She has galloped all day long
Let her stroll and graze
