To the meadows where we picked the cyclamen.

On the brown sedge in the hazy meadows,
Where the deer tracks were black in the morning.
Ice forms in the shadows;”

Thanksgiving morning
a memory of the hardest rain fall
and Red tail Hawk.
Highest branch of the oak
Sat wet
with ruffled feathers spread
Waiting for sun to dry
I watch for the longest time
Mapping the plumage
Color and pattern
Tail
Flight
Contour
Bristle
Downy
The hawk
Smooths it’s shape
A flash up
And gone

Politics keep me off the boards and I’m glad I wasn’t involved last week
I’m under the impression that a majority of FMU DJs are not open to opposing views. That’s been my experience.one actually blocked me when there was no debate just an open discussion. After blocking me he cleared my comments and called me an idiot when I couldn’t respond. So yeah
I stay out of the boards when I see politics.

Regular philosophical patter with that guy who was selling the In Dublin magazine in Grafton St. outside Bewley's.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:43am
Jeffrey Davison:

Roadside Picnic, there is the sense of apocalypse (or Apocalypse) through most or all of Tarkovsky, and I think he might have been giving a nod to the Soviet Union, but it seems to be more about the situation on the planet. I would like to think that he still believed in redemption, if for no other reason than the fact that his films are so visually beautiful.

One song I've always wanted to hear is 'Christ made a trance' by Shirley collins. Can't afford the box set it's on and I've never seen it on YouTube. I saw Shirley Collins in conversation at Cecil sharp house and she spoke about it, but only played a recording of the waterson carthy version. This was around 2010, before she started singing again. Its a long shot, and I know requests are lame, but Jeffrey if you have a recording and could play it on your show I would be forever grateful!

He had a fairly mild case, which cleared up, he tested negative, then had a big relapse which at first they said was not COVID, then a second test said it was.

Yeti Bob, Covid is such a bastard. Also the long-term consequences have to be considered. A friend of mine kept being diagnosed psychosomatic until recently when doctors started to admit what they call 'the long Covid'.

I want to play tennis today with friends. I know they will all be out on this 60 degree sunny day. Playing doubles is a bit risky. You stay 6feet apart "most of the time".

Reading all of the kindness makes me happy. Political discussions do not upset me; sometimes they actually energize. The COVID discussions somewhat concern me since I do have to go to food stores, optician, and other local appointments which are much more concerning than someone saying he/she/they are pro Biden or god forbid, pro trump.

Deborah, we definitely need political discussions, but maybe not on the comments board, but what we need are real discussions, not lists of talking points serving only as barbs. As for covid, cripes, I've been careful but guess I'm going to rein it in a bit, as I've been enjoying a tad more freedom of movement. Doesn't bode well for small business, though.

@Jeffrey Davison Agree re political discussion. Miss my academic hangout times an discussions with pals and with students. (Don't miss class time that much). Coffee an political discussions were a part of my everyday existence. However, it was easy. Only found one trumper in four years of chat and debate; that was a student.
I am moving around re COVID but not exactly ecstatic. Well, there will be vaccinations soon-ish and more discussion will ensue.
Thanks for a most fitting show!

Dennis, it's just another reason that no one need turn away from WFMU. I listened last night to an hour of a folk show on KCUT from Montreal. Nice show, a bit disappointing though, the kind of typical folk music show you generally here, though mostly nice stuff. KCUT is a great station, though!
