There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Having breakfast in the hotel. Total room holds 35 or so. Papa Wease left around 15 minutes ago and he just came back in. As he walks thru the door he announces to the room “well, I got two things out of the way, now I’m ready to go!” I swear, sometimes it’s like going around with a five year old.

Please review your hotel breakfast here http://forums.theskyiscrape.com/viewtop ... =8&t=17923

Beer residue in the Camelback would be nasty though. Hear me out: A Skinny Bitch (vodka and lime + soda).

War is hell, 'snatch. What the hell is wrong with you?

Today was the last full day in Vashon/Seattle. Went to the space needle, and up it. Then took the monorail to the public market. Walked around for a bit, then a quick duck in to Sub Pop, and hauled ass to catch the fast ferry back to Vashon for dinner, which is whatever fish our friends bought from the market.

[Ello Sailor]

Did you pick up anything at Sub Pop? Does it have memorabilia and shit or is it just a record store?

I picked up a tee and a crewneck sweatshirt. They’ve got some records, tapes, books, and knickknacks. They even has some pj stuff.

It was smaller than I thought, but still cool.

[Ello Sailor]

Hell yeah, brother.

Last day in Paris. Head to the airport at 1:00 for 3:00 flight. I had breakfast at the hotel then went with Mrs Wease and the Weaselings to Cafe de Flore and had hot chocolate and some delicious sorbet. Lemon is pretty much always my favorite but the pear sorbet I had was quite exceptional. Very humid today and everything just feels sticky and yucky. Very tired today. We’ve been going nonstop and pretty much the only real stop we’ve taken is when we met with VinylGuy. Other than that, it’s been up at 5am, GO GO GO, back to room about 11pm, crash by midnight, repeat… And it’s caught up with me. My knees and hips still ache and I’m dead tired. Glad today is a travel day and we’re pretty much finished with all the rushing here.

Next stop, Venice!
