inky, sweatless pores,
all eyes drawn to the Dragon
keeper of the Grail;
night falls to The Hinterlands —
she is searching for herself.

Year of the tiger
fearless are her yellow eyes

Hi QM. Thanks for holding down the fort. I’m on a busy schedule in Vietnam, but in spite of all the work we manage to laugh out loud a lot. And eat well.
I’m enjoying myself in cool Hanoi. I sure love it here.
I liked your dragon haiku. What a striking tattoo.

Hi ybonesy, no problem. Laughing out loud is good medicine. I remember the post you did about Vietnamese food the last time you were in Vietnam. It looked delicious.
I’m drawn to dragons, no way around it. But not for the usual reasons. To me, they have a kind of gentle fierceness. Fighting spirit with kitty undertones. Are dragons reptiles?
Hey, ybonesy, I wanted to ask you if you are hearing much about what’s going on in Haiti while you’re in Vietnam. I wondered what the coverage of the earthquake was like there. It’s everywhere on the news here. Many prayers and donations. A collective sadness permeates. Miss you.

QM, yes, we’re watching the devastation in Haiti from here. It’s very much in the news, both national and international. Also, in talking to people personally, many of the people I’m with are from Asia-Pacific, and are recalling earthquakes and other natural disasters they’ve gone through–much empathy for Haitians. Very sad.
