CT wrote **Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?** i return to the event and what i felt.
I am thinking about spanish moss reaching for the ground and great balconies and white cotton suits in the summer sun. I am thinking of the cakewalk and umbrellas and a casket being carried on through the mystery of death passing by with dance and music as its guide. I am thinking of Tennessee Williams and Blanche Dubois and Fats DOMINO and Louis Armstrong and Dixieland swirling around my heart in a rare free place. I am thinking of Madri Gras and large bosoms bared and men throwing bead chains in some drunken haze of ecstasy. I am thinking of the power the beat the 8 beat pounding my body lifted into a wild movement a sweat of passion the glory of Cajun/Zydeco. I am thinking of Dr.John and Randy surveying this night and their eyes full of tears, crying, just crying.
I am thinking of New Orleans
