   Alison's Blurbs
About me:
hazy sunsets, fire flies, necropolis's, ice falls, umbrellas, green lights, his button-ups, looming hawks, swimming holes, shooting stars, those flaming lips, flip flops, picnic baskets, flute playing, cheese spreads, double entendres, long lashes, guitar strumming, spider webs, documentaries, cold pints, bagpipes, flying on trapeze, daydreaming, soft pages of old books, avocados, afternoon naps with him, strange words, capuchin monkeys, saving fortunes, snow shoes, dance floors, a little bakery, farmers markets, live music, and winding trails.

My favorite new show 'the Kunstercast--the tragic comedy of suburban sprawl'!




Who I'd like to meet:
Jesters, muckrakers, square dancers, sharp shooters, fearmongers, former band geeks, light sleepers and heavy dreamers, quizzical star gazers, finger painters. Old friends. New friends.

Thanks for the request and for supporting Ms. Roy!

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy (weroy.org)
