they say heavens high above us,

and hell's not far below

but inside that subway tunnel,

there was no sure way to know. (Loudon Wainright III)

12,000 plus songs on my IPOD shuffle.......and the second song it decided to play today was No Sure Way by Mr Wainright......an obscure beauty about a particular area of lower manhattan......A I is a living , if not breathing; BEAST

Stay Safe / God Bless..........Rest in peace Charlie Kirk...hopefully you too are in a better place this morning.

The walls were tiled I hadn’t noticed they seemed so antiseptically clean
But we knew what we were under the lights were on that seemed obscene
And there I saw the three initials W, T, and then the C
I'd survived somehow was living but somewhere I shouldn't be
