What's Leftover?



Tuesday, October 26th, 2010



What's Leftover? Leaves of red, browns, golds like the sun, moon thru the clouds, bells of laughter still ringing from Dan Hoyle's captivating performance of his monologue, "Angry American's"at the Lensic Theatre in Santa Fe; a cold cup of tea, pineapple upside down cake in the refrigerator, thoughts about yesterday today, a memory of of Miss E,
one hundred two years of age, exclaiming "I can afford to be funny", a found photograph of a young man smiling goodbye. What's leftover is you. What's leftover is me.

Piojo Rojo wears Dirty Sally's Design!

September 4th, 2010....



What's leftover? Yikes! Me.
I'm leftover. I made it. You see. I was in my house in the Dumps of Glory when I saw this t shirt floating by after the rains. It got pretty clean from the rain so I decided to jump on it and take a little ride. I liked the shirt soooo much that I'm still on it.

Then my friend, Dirty Sally, a designer, saw me on it and she said, "Piojo Rojo! You look wonderful! Yes. I will make a picture of you."

And she did. You know, Dirty Sally draws everything, she draws everybody (learn about her and me in the book, The DumpChronicles). You better watch out or she'll draw you too!

Take a look. Her T-Shirts can express a feeling of certainty. And she knows because hey- she's leftover too.

What's Leftover?



"So, you wanna be an actor, eh?"Photo: Crybaby and Thomas Aquinas Cahill, "doing homework" for rehearsal scene from Ferris Wheel on the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island, opening day, 2010.

What's leftover from early spring? Memories of a voice screaming, "Oh no, are we going round again", paper cup from Nathans, recipe for having fun at Joe Rosen's February birthday babies party (have your friends and give'em rice and red beans, beans, beans)...

What's leftover from May Day, 2010? Snow stains on red bricks outside the studio, ashes in the wood stove, lingering smell of Miss Pearl after the rain, notes from "Art Charlie" ("...say do you think that Dirty Sally is a Buddha?"), music as the breeze rattles the bamboo chimes hanging from the roof, AND indigestion from devouring a 10" pizza- by myself!

What's leftover from a minute ago? Hail on the skylight, cold tea in a cup, chill in the air, voicemail, "Can you come out and play..."

What's leftover? Me. You. Now.

What's leftover?

What's leftover from 2009? A poster from "dirty panties, bones and fish sauce" dated February 20th, christmas cards in the recycle can, forgotten decoration hanging on the hook above the window, photograph of "Ruby" by Sam Waidler , and last, a message on the telephone, "... they say If I don't have any more treatments I can last another month but I want to tell you that I love you, that we've had a grand friendship."

What's leftover from this morning? Snow crystals melting into pecan bark, shovel out the back door, one glove on Romero Street, echoes from a barking dog, noisy birds wanting scraps of food,
a computer message from Tom
