SLEEPS 4......PLAYS 6




At 24, dreams seemed to all be about sex, wish-fulfillment and existential adventures......at 79...well....my dreams seem to be about cooking.....having awakened from 'exciting Food Dreams', before dawn, then creating new edibles, into the sunrise......When I was 24, having bought...from an auction....Jack The Giant's 8' 6" wide bed.....a couple of 'intimate' friends came by and we mounted a 4' , round, legless table with hooks and suspended it from the bedroom ceiling by chains and pullys....allowing an erotic dinner feast, followed by an orgy....after the 'table' was hoisted to the ceiing.....So, the best of two sensual worlds! After Ron Underwood ran off with the huge, communal 'fun' bed......and I gave the leather-topped poker table away......My beds have gotten smaller and smaller...as have the extravagant meals! Both kinds.......The man in the tall photograph was the original 'owner' of the custom-made bed that I bought from Mr, Kichline's Atlanta Auction Gallery on Spring Street......how practical!.....sleeps 4! 'plays' 6! I got one of his leather, 'fringed' vests, too......perfect for that 'Roger Daltry'/"Jimi Hendrix'-look that was 'IN' at the time......on me, of course, the 'vest' became a very large Indian Princess dress.....for that 'Sequoyah, Cherokee Princess' -look......
