loud frog love songs

bread & puppet know what its about. word.
love shacks pale in comparison to the life shack.
old, broken, spare, beautiful. so dope.

'earth day', in latin is terra dies. all pronunciation differences aside, thats pretty f*ed up.
but, today is the big day, for earth. i'll be celebrating, for sure, with photos and fun to follow.
seriously, though, earth day-america, is NOT the same as earth day-world. the U.N. reps the march equinox, our spring, the southern hemisphere's fall, as earth day. march 20th ya'll. my ma's birthday.
of course, some dude from wisconsin (strike one), named gaylord (strike two) nelson, came up with
earth day-usa as a hippie-friendly thing at the end of the sixties environmental movement, (your'e out).
but, im here on earth and its the 22nd. which, naturally i like, because its eleven, twice.
if you want to really keep it really real, you got to get up and at 'em on friday, go buy a bonsai tree,
and mr. miyagi that jammie-jam.

ARBOR DAY, yo. trees kick ass, hard.

the front yard here in our forest home is a swamp. a deep, wet, murky, mossy, melted snow bog.
in this bog, every year, a pantload of hibernating frogs emerge to mack on the ho's
and pimp their bizzles. this involves heroic amounts of amphibian Al Greens keeping us up all night beggin for it. 
and by IT, 
you know what i'm talkin about. its kinda nice, really, i mean, they're gonna eat all the mosquito larvae, and theyre gonna muck up the swamp with translucent jelly egg clutches, but, in a little minute, baby sperm-alikes will be scooching around.
tadpoles equate to transformation.
i'm all about it.
 

^^this^^ is basically the way i view springtime;
even as new life is emerging, the ghosts of old lives hang on. reminders of the inevitable.
thats history, abbreviated.

those winds that blow make the skeletons of memory ring like chimes, yo.
winds of change are winds of war.
and war makes ghosts.
always haunting new decisions, and new directions. 
wherever you, go, ya'll. whatever you do, just be dope.
i just vanilla sky-ed this jammie. (as in spirit and memory, spring growth and creation):
"Scandinavians legends show two crows, perched on Odin's seat : Hugi, the Spirit, and Munnin, the Memory. They symbolize the principle of creation. In the same way, these birds are the companions of Wotan ("the God with the crows")." 

spirit and memory. history.
remember.
