Samhain is coming, light the way for Stingy Jack! But before that, we have Open Mic with Andy Swift this weekend, come on down and sing a tune or play a tune or both or just watch, it’s more fun than should be legal and Lockport is bursting with excellent musicians.
For food, it’s time to start in on number 22, so we’ll have Cameroonian Goat Pepper Soup with Fufu, so yeah, everyone can stop asking. So much yum.
“All Hallows’ Eve”
Be perfect, make it otherwise.
Yesterday is torn in shreds.
Lightning’s thousand sulfur eyes
Rip apart the breathing beds.
Hear bones crack and pulverize.
Doom creeps in on rubber treads.
Countless overwrought housewives,
Minds unraveling like threads,
Try lipstick shades to tranquilize
Fears of age and general dreads.
Sit tight, be perfect, swat the spies,
Don’t take faucets for fountainheads.
Drink tasty antidotes. Otherwise
You and the werewolf: newlyweds.
–Dorothea Tanning
