I want to start looking at the sky again. I want to remember all the colors the sky is on my planet, not just the grays and the bright blue.

Sometimes I have a hard time seeing them myself, even though they are always right there. But the gray I always seem to notice.

On New Year's Day, I went to the 30th(?) Annual Poetry Marathon at St. Mark's Church and my favorite part was a poet named Janet Hamill who had a small band and she sang a song of hers called "Star Party". It was great. If you don't mind a little night sky action...

...Get out your star maps and binoculars
we’re going to stay out all night long
on the rooftops in the parking lots
what good is heaven for
what good is heaven for
what good is heaven for
if you don’t look at the sky...
