Dearest Jane,
I’ll never stop writing you. Does this thought of my very true will bring you satisfaction to keep our friendship near?
As you are also my muse, I find my musical inclination to be wrought with ire and pain as the mad raven is smothering me with her agony and sadness; her neediness and her fear.
Her hatred and extreme violence of many years has gone but now is replaced by an infant like wailing.
It’s almost worse than the violence and cruelty of before. It is utterly suffocating, my dear Jane.
I hope this day brings you joy and happiness. I miss you more than I will write down here. I await your next letter in the post, when you have the chance.
Love,
Edward

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

When Big Bands Played on every station 📻
When big bands ruled the world, with live broadcast each night. A slow world. A sentimental world. A world that believed in God. In LOVE. A world after the war that appreciated the small things, the community and most importantly family above all else. What a beautiful world that was of values. If we could only add progression to old school morality then maybe one would have less suffering. A book I read often from the 1950 states “if suffering made the world wise, a wise world it would be” after the world wars what a wise world we were becoming. If progression could meet slowness, like the Italian say “the art of doing nothing” what a peaceful world we would have. Big Bands brought in peace in a time the world didn’t know the end, each night the news goes off, did a love one die? Is your family now just a Jayne or Joe doe somewhere out there? Well forget your troubles we are all in this together- here is Glenn Miller and his Big Bands singing it’s a blue world, the moonlight serenade begins for a hour where you forget your troubles and melt in with the big band. Once the war was over those late night broadcasts became coming home dances. For a moment to me that was a beautiful world. Radio Days. Glenn miller and his orchestra playing live lifting spirits. A beautiful world that must had been for that moment. To be alive and to be appreciative of every second God Has given you.

Miss Persephone's Manual to a Seemingly Ordinary Life
Miss Persephone was found at the dining table, her blue eyes swollen, her tears arriving and retreating like the tides of the ocean. Earlier that day, her family had visited her in the retirement home where she had lived for eight years. It was her eightieth birthday.

Stirs at my mind. Remembering trauma that I let go, rewind and let it blow. 😉💕
Thank you Melissa giving such thread! The beautiful lines are relaxing the mind beautifully.
