The Holy Gospel according to the Prairie Messiah

Like a myth you rode in from the west. From the go you had my button pressed. Did the tea-time of your soul Make you long for wilder days? Did you never let Jack Kerouac Wash over you in waves?

Kaw-liga was a wooden Indian standing by the door. He fell in love with an Indian maiden over in the antique store.

I think I have pretty well decided that I need to cleanse my house. Not so much that the house is negative, but that I can be so at times. Maybe I just need to cleanse myself, ha! So, over to Pier One or Romancing the Stone I go after work in search of some white sage incense. If anything, my house will smell good and a prayer will be said. I don't see any harm in that effort.

But of course, the monks will be concerting tonight. I called Jean Wednesday night while she was in Baltimore attending a workshop. She had managed to find she way over to Annapolis to visit a friend, when I had called, so our conversaion was brief. Her curiosity was piqued when I mentioned the sand mandala in construction, Buddhist monks and the overall low price of the show. I will remind her about it this afternoon, after she flies back in, but I think she might be to pooped to go. That poor girl is always pooped on Fridays, regardless of a plane ride. I could just go stag to the concert and I would probably be really up for a cleansing when I get home.

Those are some multi-talented monks.

They play basketball too AND they are HERE! Singing, dancing and builing a mandela. I am begining to think I would be a fool for not going to this.

I missed the Russian Icons that came to town twice several years ago. Now, I am kicking myself for it. I need to make a habit of seeing/attending more things like that when the world comes to my doorstep like that.

Here are some pics

They might just sell smudge sticks too. Hmmm. That would be nice if they did. There I go building expectations again.
