I can't stay, I gotta iPhone...

Styl666 my faithful reader and fan,
I looked up your village yesterday
tiny little dot on the big screen.
The damned thing is a marvel,
signed a two year contrac with Death Star
to get it...
So, I've gotta come back from the weird
and complicated land...
worry not.
It's all here now.
you know...

Sittin waitin for the ferry to take me
back to the Island,
did a weird session with
the brother,
we eat and smoke
and he told me secrets
we rode over to the Ibeam
and played iPhones til 12:00am

" what are you gonna do with your fone
when you don't come back...?" he asked.
I rolled my eyes.

So, all ya'll, stop.
This aint' a life changing thing.
That happened already,
survived it well enough.
I'm closing out a part of my life.
comming back and going to work again
just like normal.
I seek closure.
Just got to let it go..

So I'll email the brother now
and tell him so...
" Hey D, You don't get the fone, forget it !!!!!"

Be well todo mundo,

J.Level

...The brother's
asked if I could come over to the other side to work on a special house...
" ...well, aint' this the most beautiful house we've done yet..." i said.
Spent the day tellin' Steel,
and listening to Steel
a huge guy,
as delicate as anyone I know.
taught me much,
this sensitive
enlightened man.

We ate on Alki beach,
then sat on the balcony of the most
beautiful home we've done to date,
smokin' and confessin'
I try not to confess....
but I do...
I am workin' on NOT
apoligizing
or critizing
or judging.
These Steel words,
"...don't judge
don't critizize
don't apoligize...".
All right
and just
to those around
and distant...

We ended at the home of a saint.
She had lived her life in India,
careing for those
without,
she said,
" ... You'll be fine...",
over her glasses.
I had said nothing,
she was reading
and I am used to doing
my Zen thing
without a sound
more than a
"Squeeeeek...",
rubber on glass...
and moving on to the next room.
"...You'll be fine..." she said.
"...I know...",
I said.

I think alot about the choices
and the words.
The thoughts
that were as loud
as the screaming ever was...
I won't do that again, Steel.

" ...you missed a spot
riiiiiiiiiighht there..." I pointed.
He gave me an evil,
but loving stare...

I am blessed to have these people in my life,
I know.
I know...

Another good day
transforming things...


Be well todo mundo,
