there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I’m not going
to let anybody see
you.

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pour whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he’s
in there.

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the
works?
you want to blow my book sales in
Europe?

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody’s asleep.
I say, I know that you’re there,
so don’t be
sad.
then I put him back,
but he’s singing a little
in there, I haven’t quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it’s nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don’t
weep, do
you?

” Bluebird”  by Charles Bukowski

Dedicated to my visual affinities.

A mosaic of images running through the web but also my thoughts, my dreams and my reality.

Yet so the universe was wrought.
Thought is another name for fate;
Choose then thy destiny and wait,
For love brings love and hate brings hate.

Hail to the small diversions;

Fantastical ideas becoming simple realities

A woman caught right at her most vulnerable

Curled up in fetal position, in limbo, or running away

The drive there from NY:  about 12 hours. And while I was heading up north to cold Canada, NYC was getting snowed in.  A big surprise.
Final destination:  a block filled with houses that resemble castles –  5 min. from the downtown area —  they were nice but the TREES were gorgeous!
Food: for the first time in my life I ate and loved MUSHROOMS (not the poisonous ones).  Oliver and Bonacini is the name of the place and the food is damn delicious.
The club: Roosevelt Room, charming SPACE but for all the fuss the DJ really didn’t impress. All in all I absolutely loved Toronto, and despite having spent only two short days there, this beautiful city is going on my new list of ‘Cities I’d Live In’.
