i wish
the Dolly Lama

Hearing an old song on the radio this morning, the earwormly Islands in the Stream, it suddenly pierced me how sad I will be when Dolly Parton dies. I hope she’s happy and I hope it’s not for a long, long time. Some people remember what the world was like and they remind us how we can be human, I think.
To Dolly. Who even on the surface was beautiful long before it ‘took a lot of money to look this sheep.’
