Hello gals & ghouls. Happy Halloween. Carve out a pumpkin, ingest wee fistfuls of candy and get your supernatural freak on. As a kid, this was one of my favourite nights of the year. I mean, you get to dress up, stuff your face and scare yourself silly. Beat that, Easter! To help get you into the witching hour spirit, I leave you with the Divine Miss M in Hocus Pocus (a classic from my childhood).

Their insistent undertones are as excited and impatient as petulant children.

They meet at night, in silence, for the tacit agreement of emergency love.

The act begins.

The walls clamour for the valour of her moans;

uninhibited, melancholic, unashamed.

He clings to every fibre of her realness,

her tangible body,

that which is beautifully flawed.

They are night birds.

Never more familiar and removed from one another.

Fingers tug and rip at buttons, seams, any obstacle in the way of flesh.

Silence remains.

Words would only mar this magnificent duet.

Just touch; the urgency of the ephemeral love is understood.

Enclose me and I will resign myself to you.

Then the walls will clamour for our love

and bemoan the morning when the buttons are fastened once more

and we become strangers again.

Dearest Reader,

I am about to go into a period of silence, don't be alarmed- I'm going to a place where the internet is scarce and mobile phones are frowned upon. I will be waking up at 5:30am each morning and lots of meditation and yoga will ensue. Wish me luck and see you in a week.

The Frockette

Must be my double

And I can't forget, I can't forget

I can't forget but I don't remember what 

The man is wearing a sequined suit, sitting on a throne singing into a rose! It doesn't get much better than this....

The candle casts deep shadows on the screen,

The Milky Way dims and morning stars fade.
Chang-O must regret stealing the elixir,
As she broods in loneliness night after night.
