BAMR mural Sacramento auspice for Palo Alto BLACK LIVES MATTER

Demetris Washington artist known as BAMR has a mural in Sacramento from 2018 with the diamond image or icon featured in the “B” of his mural here.
I also like his version of Edgar Al Poe raven and tell tale heart.
Flows like Poe, yo.
“Po” is Hebrew for “here”.
I know.

 

Shiraaz and Porat were signing their work, which I thought was like a “taxi” meaning transit or process or motion. Shaped like a “t”, what’s the tea, sis, to a “T”.

I posed in a Richard Sherman jersey, photo by Shiraaz. 

When I was at Dartmouth in the 1980s in a religion intro course the teacher said that Zoro astroism is like imaginging the world as controlled by a good and an evil set of gods playing ping pong.

 

and 1: the mayor Adrian Fine was hanging BLM style this am and I reiterated that he could have been more emphatic to say I LOVE YOU and BLACK LIVES MATTER but don’t think he should resign as I stated previously. I flippered flappered. Maybe if he runs again I will vote for him. He is trying to learn and listen. Between this — the murals –  and the new Monk album coming out — an historic 1968 performance — he is at least a good luck charm. He should keep self-driving cars off the mural forevers. 

 

andand: auspice, augury, I wan’t to trip on it further. In some places it is good luck if a bird shits on you. In other places, you are insane like coltrane. 

edit to add, a few long hours later:

DON’T BULLSHIT A BULLSHITTER by Joey Piziali 2009, commission for Weiss 2009 — was rejected as an ad in the local papers:

PROTECT THE MURAL

I think the BLACK LIVES MATTER mural in front of City Hall 250 Hamilton is a high water mark for culture here in the last 25 or 30 years. Kudos to the makers, staff, volunteers and leaders. In that order.
I read it like a codex: not sure what it means, it will reveal itself over time, to me, to you, to each his her or their own.

I say, as 1 in 10,000 voters here, we keep the cars off it for a few more weeks. And the tenants of 267 Hamilton can park elsewhere for a while.
