Inner Perception, 2011

And the sky is black and still now
On the hill where the angels sing
Ain’t it funny how an old broken bottle
Looks just like a diamond ring
But it’s far, far from me

–John Prine, Far From Me

One of those mornings. Busy, with plenty to do, and everything seems out of rhythm. Everything, especially electronics, is acting glitchy this morning. Tried photographing some new work and the flap where the batteries and SD card are inserted broke. Had to hold it in place with masking tape.

Finally took a few images then tried editing them with Photoshop which acted glitchy, as well. Took much too long for a simple task.

Frustrating. Too frustrating for a Sunday morning.

Let’s just listen to this week’s Sunday Morning Music selection. It’s an old favorite from the late John Prine‘s 1971 self-titled first album. Here’s the bittersweet classic, Far From Me. This is a fine live version from a number of years back.

Feels right this morning. Now let me be. I have to get back in rhythm before it’s far, far from me…
