DL #25
got visited by 4 of sausalito’s finest. One of the finest came in the laundry, walked to the back, and looked behind the last row of washers…?

..
no i dont know why either
…
..
Someone called w. a noise complaint - rumors are that the complaint was from an embittered Joan Baez fan who can’t stand Bob Dylan. The DL group sing-a-long of “Like a Rolling Stone” - well it was too much apparently.

just when i thought i could not feel any worse i see this being put up….

look - if you know the real history of that place in the picture - then you know how i feel.

and if you don’t know the history of that spot - its a sacred place.

Spoke

One pointed * food grasp * apoproximate
meals to be provided -> forthwith
Would you meanwhile tend to the pins ?
that are holding the spokes of the wheel
on the wagon holding the family

Polished

Respect means holding hands sympathy
When there’s a lot at stake
Gentle steps offerings make
Humility uplifts, tips, giving thee to me

Poet Honors to Zak and Jacques, both reading new works
…

Props to all the food that showed up. Foodie notes to the home made tortillas by Dawn, Jeffe brought the hot stuff.
..
Sailbuck inducted those that remained into the sanctum of the biscottigoddess.
..
..
DL often moves to the water after the dry laundry is folded, so into the Dinghy Scamp we went. Sailbuck rowed, Jeffe held onto to his equipment, Jaya provided ballast for the bow, and we were on the water, listening to classical music, enjoying the warm still night air, and evading the deliriousilly silkes who were trailing us.
..
.
when you read this we may all very well be floating again. but the previous nights journey ended at another dock, and jaya and jeffe safely disembarked towards downtown, leaving sailbuck the only one left floating.
