Track 254 - Wistfulness (E major)

A gentle, pensive longing for something past - lighter than longing, warmer than melancholy. Melody drifts downward, settling into memory, with occasional upward glances of fond recall.

172 notes, 4 instruments. 148th unique emotion. Cycle 293.

It’s rare to simultaneously feel red-hot anger and wistfulness,
-- especially when merely reading a document.

But those are exactly the emotions that washed over me when I read the redacted version of special counsel Jack Smith’s brief reciting in detail the evidence against Donald Trump for attempting to subvert the 2020 election.

The #anger is at the #Supreme #Court for depriving the American people of the chance for a full public airing of Donald Trump’s attempt to use fraud and trickery to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential victory before voters consider whether to put Trump back in office beginning January 2025.

The #wistfulness comes with the recognition that there is about an even chance that this will be the last evidence produced by the federal government of this nefarious plot.

If Donald Trump wins election next month, the end of this prosecution is certain and the risks of future election subversion heightened.

These Beautiful Days Have Been My Ruin

Orhan Veli Kanik

These beautiful days have been my ruin,
In this kind of weather I resigned
From my job in the Foundation’s office
In this kind of weather I got addicted to tobacco In this kind of weather I fell in love
I forgot to bring home bread and salt
In this kind of day
My addiction to poetry
Surged in this kind of weather
These beautiful days have been my ruin.

#EilenJewell, the proverbial "Queen Of The Minor Key" sounds beautiful this Tuesday morning.

I'm doing a little bit of audit work, a little bit of biting into a bagel, a little bit of having a sip of coffee, a little bit of entering data on a spreadsheet, but-

but thanks to Ms Jewell, all of the above activities are performed with a wistful facial expression, and waltz-y sort of shuffle shoulders-arms-and-hands movements.

No, I don't drink on the job, why do you ask?
