“Cats were the gangsters of the animal world, living outside the law and often dying there. There were a great many of them who never grew old by the fire.”

"Aquaduct" Happy Birthday! William Sartain 1843-1924
"Fancy for far places wasn't unexpected given his comfortable childhood in upscale Philly. Pursuit of a siren call, he sipped fragrant coffee, donning a burnoose in North Africa; spice & local flavor he would show in his paintings."

Joel Robison's photo illustrates a dream I had about 30 years ago. A huge book. A bible? Glows in the street, corner of Woodbine & Elmore. Sign of end times! Dusky evening, folks ran to see it. As teens, we had a pact; call each other if we saw an omen. Bob, "It's here!" #dream #omen #Bob'sdeadnow

Joseph's Dream Evelyn Dunbar 1906-1960
"Joseph's big eyes. Wonder at the extraordinary vision of the sheaves. Arrested mid-step, right hand touching walls- he is afraid to lose contact with the solid or believe the import of his dreams. Sheaves say 'Behold this dreamer cometh.'" #art
