homicidal lesbian terrorist

i see your women caught behind windows
in their homes, behind rows and rows
of bleached and frightened children.
They speak men's words, not their own
except those languages they've
learned to speak in secret
and in dreams, if they've
not forgotten.

- Joy Harjo, From the Salt Lake City Airport '82

it's 2226h on the damned holiday & i've mostly avoided the painful bits: i'm home with the kitty & the roomie is away, so it's naps & snax & tv & ps2. that's what this day is about, innit? sloth & indulgence?

as an aside, the commercials on this holiday perhaps the lousiest of any day in the year: it's solid cheap production rip-off schemes & elderly faw-down-go-boom alert systems. i haven't seen a damn car commercial all day. (that is a good thing, by the way.)

in short, today was not much excitement but overall a very pleasant experience: deglet nur figs, turkish coffee & a napping cat.
