And I have to add: fabulous lyrics, music, and delivery! Perfect notes for each phrase. Reminds me of Joni Mitchell. The dialogue high-level Zen wisdom. You're a model for successfully doing it all, and with sincere loving care. Your muses have giant hearts.
Poetry bit me when I turned 57. Suddenly, in a moment, out of the proverbial blue, and not baby teeth but big chomping incisors and canines right at my jugular. It was time to be obsessed, overcome, consumed, the Muse said. And she shot flame into my veins. That was the start of a lifelong wake-up addiction. First poetry collection published at age 79, second book manuscript accepted and published at age 81, and goal this year to have third manuscript polished and ready for submission. Your creative Muses (and you've been birthed by many!) have you, girl, and they're not letting go. They know you love them, and they'll take care of you every single day. Just ask Ginjure. She feels them hovering. Just ask them what to do.
That is so inspiring to me!! I have to remember that I do have time, and what is meant to come through me will come through whether I kick and scream about it or not!
This is so good. I’ve always thought you were amazing. This “interview” sheds light on how to prioritize your gifts and desires. (Can’t believe my “birthday buddies” are eight!)
Yay! I'm glad you are back to writing - I missed these! And I had a friend once say that you couldn't be punk once you became a mom. I'm very proud that she got to meet you and see how wrong she was.
