"Penny, Desi, Ayhlin, Dosha and myself,
all living our lives and collecting the gist of our experience with little handheld recorders

The true bliss of that twisted universe was captured entirely as we spun around a decaying C chord on loop but when every ringing frequency and resonate hum diminished into a snapping of metallic wires we broke into a howling trance and smashed all the dishes hidden in the basement
I accidentally sliced a two inch gash on my left leg
Penny duct taped it
and after crying a good cry we left the mayhem
to spray paint FABULO and RAKZAD on an abandoned semi trailer off 33rd
and to browse the naughty section but hold back and only buy oranges and noodles and Neosporin

we all parted ways at the warehouse
and I walked back to my studio

smelling like onions I talked to someone named Fiona on the internet
but I never daydreamed about her
I didn't even imagine knowing her
I just pondered the current chaotic taste in my mouth
and made funny jokes

I looked terrible day in and day out
but really loved it
because I was like totally feral
or
like totally anything I never imagined because I just let it happen

and no one called upon me for their meager desire to obtain a piece of it

so I laid in bed with all my recording gear
to sift through, unravel, soften and fold the winter’s harvest of collected soundscapes

to
focus on the vision
bless the work
empty the trash
invisibly kiss the cosmic tenderness of a zero self
and
Say Good Bye"

– Loretta Blue
