latin

hope is deceptive. among other things.

i wish i had something more concrete than the passions of my heart. pools that have undetermined depths, they may be unexpectedly shallow.

i have some stuff on my mind but i know better than to speak them. i'm only half-convinced of them myself and not willing to hazard the chance of sounding like a fool. i kind of wish i had a chunk of time in solitary confinement to hash thru it all. perhaps it's better that i can't.

in other news... i was flipping my way thru a rail magazine today at work, and this photo caught my eye:
any guesses who that is? i was so shocked when i saw it! i've never been in a magazine before. even if it's just the back of me and hardly anyone will recognize me. it's so neat! i feel (almost) famous!

what kind of paradise am i looking for?
i've got everything i want and still i want more.

That picture is sooo Lesley. No doubt about identity. Even from behind. Classic. (I had my picture in a book once. It was taken back in the 60s when I was in Texas. I had forgotten all about it until I read your entry today.)
