The UnMaker
Last night in a dream Deron made the case that God was both Maker and UnMaker, and that you could conceivably deconstruct the Maker as Creator, but you could not destroy the UnMaker. I think he was right.

Hi, Lynn!
It sounds like an apocalyptic weekend! I wish circumstances had made it possible for me to be there.
I hope to get to Texas later on in the summer. If y’all are around, Lynn, maybe I can cruise by and say ‘hello’ then.
Greetings to you both. A GREAT weekend with the Flockers…
Are they flocking or clustering?
Hey, Coop.. it was BOTH, and sometimes at the very same time. But its hard to tell a “flocK” from a “cluster” when they’re all huddled up together talking face-to-face.
We are back! Oh what an amazing time we had–we are still filled with the beauty of it all, and we are so grateful to Lynn and Jackie and Deron and Amy for sharing the farm with us and making so many thoughtful arrangements. We had a feeling it was going to be good but this exceeded all expectations. I hope somebody will make a post that forms a good place for everybody there to comment on the experience. For instance: I never heard so many good stories told in one place in my life. I’ll say more later but I have to go tend to Cindy’s long term hangover (that’s a story in itself). I have only now begun to catch up on what we missed on Cluster while we were gone. Some of what I have seen so far suggests an effort akin to teasing Cindy out of a coma. When she is able she will have Much to say about the 19th century! Long live all flockers–and their boundless power to renew a sense of all that matters most in life.
Eh, Daryl, does this mean we should stuff the velocipedes and corsets back into the closet?
Like fuck we will.
I was just setting you up, Lucy. I knew you’d fly into a tizzy.
I’m a new woman since seeing Buster Keaton on a velocipede.
Buster Keaton was a god among men.
And Amy Lowell was a man among gods.
‘I’m a new woman since seeing Buster Keaton on a velocipede.’
‘Buster Keaton was a god among men.’
Even on very short visits here, I always read at least one very funny line and one very true one. Thank you both and thank you all.
Well, thank you, Stan!
777///???
Wait a minute, Stan: are you calling me a liar? I thought Sheila’s line was funnier. Made me think of Buster Keaton with wings.
And a halo.
Buster Keaton has wings and a halo. Invisible ones. It’s the only possible explanation.
I thought Coop’s line was pretty danged funny — his crack about Amy Lowell.
