Love on Line
These
nocturnal visits
over Love.Com
require no suitcase,
bring no human feet
over my threshold.
Only conversation
hollow in its lack
of pulse beat
echoes through it.
Too much of our world
absent from the other parts.
Too many empty chambers
with great sound systems.
Too many tapping fingers.
Waiting eyes.
Prompts today are suitcase, hollow, bring, nocturnal.

Interesting poetic picture, thanks~! But this morning being alone too and feeling sad, I am thinking in a different direction,
UP~!
Soon my efforts on WP will end,
working on what is next for me then,
so keep an eye out for me then
I will surprise all of you, with what I will do
but I can’t say what, how, or when~!

I can’t make this come up. If it is from the New Yorker, perhaps because I am not a subscriber.
I have been to this place in Mexico–actually hiked a good distance up in the mountains to see the monarchs. I have also seen a similar place in Big Sur, although it doesn’t compare to the Michoacan butterfly adventure. I later found I’d hiked all that distance with a cracked rib. I’d fallen on the stairs in Patzcuaro the day before. Ouch.

That is on UTUB, but it is rather long and may take a long time to load down there. Try it from here: Really beautiful~!
Utub is also trying to make more money from subscriptions~!

My stiff finger refused to hit the E, Ha did it twice, sure rough being old. But today I got a great telephone for the hard of hearing which prints in closed caption. Now I may be able to use the phone again without continually saying: What did you say~?

I’m sorry, guess they would not send it direct. It is a movie clip for a short film from NewYorker way back in 2007. I hope this will connect it:

Maybe not nocturnal, but in a way subjectively similar in thought, and reminded me of you, July is very good with words, have you read this in the NewYorker~?

It was the new Yorker article I couldn’t see, Sam, not the Monarchs.

A very apt description Judy, wonderfully expressed. Thanks for joining in 🙂 🙂

Very nice. Since the Evil X, I eschew Such sites so even THAT hollow two dimensional love offering is out of my field of view and that’s OK with me. 😀

That address Sam pasted was to a Google mail box not a link to the actual article.

Sometimes hard to tell which link is which.
