Liminality is a quality of being in between two places or stages, on the verge of transitioning to something new.

Today I went out into my community. I had my hair cut and went shopping. Not, my normal routine. I felt a sweetness in the air, a soft dew in the atmosphere that goodness was wanting to be found. It was a new fresh feeling of discovery as my hair was being cut.
People at the store were nice and everything seemed sweet. A soft hug from the cosmos.
It did not last forever, yet I try to focus on it when the shadow comes a calling.
Je Souhaite, Episode aired May 14, 2000.
The X-Files
Jenn (played by Paula Sorge) was the name given to a very powerful jinniyah by Fox Mulder in 2000.
Jinni money
“That’s the price that we all pay
And the value of destiny comes to nothing
I can’t tell you where we’re going
I guess there was just no way of knowing.”
Today I believe I am the jenii out of an episode of the X-Files.
A couple of weeks earlier I found forty bucks rolled up on the ground.
Today sitting in my local pub, I watched the world go by. I just received my 5th Covid-19 vaccine from Kaiser.
“Mulder: What would your wish be if you were in my place?
Jenn: I’m not you. It doesn’t matter.
Mulder: No, but I just, you know, I’d like to know.
Jenn: I wish that I’d never heard the word “wish” before. I’d wish that I could live my life moment by moment, enjoying it for what it is instead of worrying about what it isn’t. I’d sit down somewhere with a great cup of coffee, and I’d watch the world go by.”
A freedom. No phone.
My Nutty Burnett
A Pint instead of a coffee.
What is on my mind are all the ugly apartments built along the streets.
The San Fernando Valley is a mixture of apartments, the homeless and cars.
A strange hopelessness is in the fast air.
A cruelty place where there are too many manifesting cars. No planning, just more building.
Across from the old Rocketdyne is a homeless camp. In the far-flung distance one sees the massive apartment building just built during a pandemic and drought here in California.
Out of reach for these homeless people. Apartments built that no one is leasing.
So, I finished my free meal today, a pint of beer and appetizer of Ahi Poke paid for by jinni money.
“I used to think that the day would never come
I’d see delight in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come.
That my life would depend on the morning sun.”
This is dedicated to Jenn… thank you.
