It’s not a ig deal — it’s what connects the mall to the psrking garage, but you can see it; so I decided to take some pictures.

I’ve taken pictures of this area before.

But here is the view from the opposite side:

You just can’t ridicule her or bully her into following the crowd.

Impossible Queens are unruly rulers.

And they like to free to play and have fun so that they lift the spirits of others.

The intimidation is just the lead talking — so the Queen thumbs her royal thumb at the lead.

The laughter is light and if whatever she does brings light, she’ll just do more of the same.

She does her own thing because she is an impossible Queen…

A favorite treat of mine.

It’s sweet and addictive.

I like the selection and trying ones I haven’t tried before.

Fun for sharing, too.

But sometimes I think that’s the best part…

I have been working on my fables (152 pages and counting); so it has been that and not other things — but when you are a writer, you don’t want to let go of a hot streak because it just flows and flows and flows, and I can’t stop. The thing with writing old school fables is there is a lot of word play and it’s a hard balance to strike — when I started, too much street slang and Hammer talk crept in, but when I found the right voice — it just got easier and easier.

This has really been a mash-up of sorts — I sort of see some of the structure I originally wanted for other things getting in here — and yet there is also a lot more original ideas coming into play, too.

So I don’t know how long this type of writing is going to stay with me — so I am pushing this for as long as I can because I have never written like this before. But I am trying to balance being gangbusters on writing and taking it easy and enjoying myself in other ways, too — like having a nice cup of Turkish coffee while not staring at a computer screen…

She has always been one to write fables or mentor apprentices.

She had always seen the stage as the realm of the Diamonds.

She can only show her own face.

She never sought the scripts of others or taken to wearing someone else’s masks.

She would never follow a script, not even one of her own making.

For she speaks from the heart.

A script she created one day may not have anything to do with what she was feeling the next.

She is unruly.

He heart may be the Philosopher’s Stone, but it is made of light.

It flows and cannot be reigned in.

Her heart is spontaneous and while it may be orderly, it is one that is does not like confines of scripts and masks of others…

He may be naughty if you don’t get his ways, but he is still my baby…

An old CSI Miami rerun.

Go Horatio!

I like my grit.

I’m not scared to walk downtown alone at night, and not just my own.

I don’t think of myself as a Hellcat, but I am not a pushover, either.

A Queen of Hearts belongs in a gritty city.

Because she sees it as the wonderful paradise it really is…

When you misuse your lead and your gold.

Lead blinds.

But gold can distract you from looking at your own lead.

It takes courage to rise about the metals and see things the way they are.

But it also takes courage to go down to the ground to see the smaller things you may have missed standing so tall.

Because if you only see what you want to see and not what’s really there, you start to play a game of Blind Postman.

You have no idea what you are giving or to whom or whether you’ve made the right delivery.

You have no idea if you are giving gold to a Heart or you are giving it to a Spade. You may be giving lead to a Heart instead.

You don’t know. Your metals blind you.

And the delivery you make is pure poison.

Or you reward an unworthy Card with a prize.

The act itself is meaningless.

The motive is irrelevant.

The bottom line determines everything.

And your willful blindness is not an excuse, it is the proof that you have failed someone because you saw only what you wanted to see…

They are a reflection on the soul of the creator.

They are a representative of their creator’s beliefs, ideals, lessons, and visions.

And if their creator comes under fire, the figment fires back…

Is also known as Between the Sheets because what comes between the pair of Cards is what counts.

The less there is between them, the higher the payout.

But the payoff is the largest when there is no distance between them…

Your odds at winning are better than other card games.

But the trouble is there is not an honest banker in sight…

You win when all the cards are built onto the foundation cards.

But you first must tear down the walls.

And it is a game of solitaire.

The game sounds like child’s play, but it is extremely difficult to win…

To get any Heart in your hand carries a penalty…
