I had fun in Vegas with nakdthoughts i waited in the Golden Nugget lobby for her to show up sitting on the bench watching the taxis pull up one by one waiting for Wynter to step out I walked back to the casino and listened to hear if she paged me like she said she would..than i walked back to the lobby one more time..it was 6:15PM I knew she would be arriving soon. she surprised me when she walked around the corner We both had big smiles on her faces and hugged each other.. the taxi had left her out on the south side of the casino pulling her suitcase behind her i thought she was shorter and thinner then her pic she thought i was a lot taller than mine a lady behind the desk told her she looked like Miriah Carey Wynter thought i looked like Geena Davis we laughed at our new stardom we laughed with the cab driver the next day on the way to Caesars he was happy as can be he said we sounded like poets and he was right as we talked of the desert mountains we talked to a jeweler in Caesars forums he said he bought his daughter an opal Wynter asked if he would adopt her and he smiled from ear to ear. We sat listening to the band in the Nugget we watched an elderly lady dance on the dance floor all by herself.. swinging her arms back and forth she had so much fun dont know what she was on but i wish i had of asked dancing in her leather below the stage where the band had begun she took off the jacket and underneath looked like a strapless nightgown she didnt care what she had on as long as the music kept playing nakt and i smiled enjoying the free show a young guy danced by himself on the other end until he got escorted out he lived for the music but i think he was down and out but while he was dancing he didnt have a care in the world while he danced to the soul music we won money at the Nugget won money at Treasure Island saw the tigers at the Mirage had dessert by the pool we bought clothes and watched shows walked..talked all day and night all in four days me and Nakthoughts on Thanksgiving Holiday I had only met one other person in passions and that was a couple years ago.. I met Wilfred Yeats.. when i went back to see my father who was sick. Wil drove over to the Marriott where i was staying at the Philadelphia airport ...i waited in the lobby for him too...standing by the front door He came over on his lunch hour.. from New Jersey...and all of a sudden i heard someone say hello behind me He had come out of the parking elevator and surprised me too.. He said "well i must say you are prettier and younger than your pic" i said "you look better than your pic too" We laughed.. Wil/Bill was very tall and looked very nice. we sat and talked of other poets it was almost like meeting a movie star. and than my sister came in and joined us. He was the first internet friend i had ever met...I have met two others in between Wil and Wynter..from another forum one from Australia and one from Texas...each time it was as though i was star struck.. Whoever thought when i bought my pc three years ago..i would be meeting friends all over the world...love ya both Wynter and Wil. A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) |

Truly, virtual reality! I loved this story...and I was just thinking how well everyone gets to know each other...not knowing each other... but often I think of one or another after turning off the lights, bells and whistles...and here you are, among lights, bells and whistles, making virtual become reality... I love it! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
