Wonder if Hak and Jack hang out together in the ether.

Another from the O. V. series:
One evening preceding the twilight,
A rainbow arc glowed in my sky light.
I followed the bend
To that long rainbow's end
And found one tiny pot of pure pyrite.
The shiniest man that I've seen
Was a guy with a bright yellow sheen.
Pure gold helps arthritis.
A handshake with Midas
Had turned my right palm a pale green.
Their calling for a little snow tonight. That would be nice. The first snow is always a good sign. Change.

SILENT INVISIBILITY
My microphone made no detection.
A shadow, but not a reflection.
Silent, unseen,
Like a film with no screen
Missing audio, cast, and direction.
skkjfane.kr.vnmnf,c lrklk klerna f;ewjhhhhhhgru; is all I have to say today. Well, most days lately.

I hope Mike had better luck than I had in Austin. Being from California, gray-haired, and 47 in 2002 without family or a friend in the area had its disadvantages. I was slender when I arrived, then lost 40 lbs. in a hurry.
Someone there asked me if I was a Yankee or a rebel. I told him that I was post-Civil War, and that I forgot the Alamo.
Great? Maybe in the ancient Roman sense of the word. But the legions are far flung and mired down, the senate is corrupt, the people are fat, indolent and lacking in virtue, and the bankers drunk with greed. This is the twilight of empire.
