| MY CANDLE BURNS AT BOTH ENDS |
| about myself: |
| My thoughts on life and love are as follows: We place ourselves among censorious strangers, knowing that in one electric moment love can strike swiftly and unexpectedly. We don't dance enough. In this quickstep of time we "oldies but goodies" need to once again be light on our feet and maybe our hearts would be lighter. We dance at weddings and bar mitzvahs or other social milestones that are stilted and self-conscious. But we should dance just for the joy of it. What I'd like to once again experience, is dancing with someone special to a bit of Roy Orbison or Percy Sledge. (No one sings "When A Man Loves A Woman" better than Sledge). Or, how about dancing to a velvety bar or two of Johnny Mathis, so that when we must separate it would be like peeling apart two sheets of erotically-charged flypaper. Remember how that was? Somehow I'll know you when we meet at Matchdoctor. You will cut a certain figure here in cyberspace, and have a rakish tilt to your graying but still handsome head. I am Paris when it sizzles. But Edna St. Vincent Millay said it best: "My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes and oh, my friends; It gives a lovely light!" |
