Hello All,

Tony Saunders left us yesterday afternoon after a two-year struggle with health issues that would have taken me down in a quarter of the time. I will have more information soon, this is just to let you know.

My heart is broken into a thousand pieces, but that is what love will do to us.

Thank you to all of you who wrote and visited: Theo and I so appreciated your celebration of and suggestions for him over the past few weeks in the hospital.

Some kind of spinning away ...

Annie Russinof

Spinning Away

Brian Eno & John Cale

(Track 6 on Wrong Way Up)

Up on a hill, as the day dissolves

With my pencil turning moments into line

High above in the violet sky

A silent silver plane - it draws a golden chain

One by one, all the stars appear

As the great winds of the planet spiral in

Spinning away, like the night sky at Arles

In the million insect storm, the constellations form

On a hill, under a raven sky

I have no idea exactly what I've drawn

Some kind of change, some kind of spinning away

With every single line moving further out in time

And now as the pale moon rides (in the stars)

Her form in my pale blue lines (in the stars)

And there, as the world rolls round (in the stars)

I draw, but the lines move round (in the stars)

There, as the great wheels blaze (in the stars)

I draw, but my drawing fades (in the stars)

And now, as the old sun dies (in the stars)

I draw, and the four winds sigh (in the stars)

Happy New Year from Tony and I. Tony took this great photo with our (foster) friend. We all decided to wear black hats for the occasion.
