The calculated unpredictable dissonance of Monk balloons off the living room walls as we toast marshmallows arguing about whether you or I are right-brained or left wondering if that bird that launched from the trees across the lake were an eagle or early owlPoem & Photo © Jilly's 2016 A Quadrille Join us over at dVerse!

I like the idea of the music bouncing off the walls like a balloon while arguing about right or left brain and eagle or early-owl.

Thank you, Frank! I thought they all ran together – or were dissonant 🙂 Monk, either way!

I thought Monk was the dog barking at the bird on the other side of the lake, it’s a great way to tell a story

Oh! What a great name for my next dog! I’m a jazz lover and Thelonious Monk is a fav! OK, now I have to go back and read it from that perspective 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and adding the joy of this!

Sounds like pretty mellow, low-key arguing going on there. Doesn’t jazz keep you kind of chill? 🙂

Hmmm… depends on the jazz, I guess. But it does make for great conversation, and you are right, we debate but never argue. Nice to see you Gayle!
