Presently geekin' out big time to Phillip Glass. Seriously? You betcha, Minnesota. Blasting it and feeling very dramatic and deep. Feeling all proud to be a Jew. It's killing me with pleasure.
Listening to my melodramatic thoughts make up all kinds of stories about my past, where everyone is wearing serious clothing and making eye contact the way they used to do on TV when I was a kid. Taking myself way too seriously and loving every minute.
Eventually I'll just lie down in the middle of the floor. Turn it up even louder, let it replenish my sense of belonging, dissolve—with each layer of those beautiful repeating keys—the personal mythology that I don't belong. Deepen my internal grooves, weight my connection to the earth, invite my spine to unfurl, my fascia to unwind again and again.
And then I'll turn it off, eventually, so I can go back to doing the dishes.
RISE UP! WRITE UP! What do you geek out to these days?
