Artsfest Part Two

I was standing by the Mayapple stage when I was reminded of a phrase I saw posted about a bar door in Little Rock:
If dreams were fire and lightning was desire, this old house would have burned down a long time ago.

I'm not sure exactly what put that phrase in my head. I was standing near Jeff Wiens and the guys from Mincks and Miller, er uh, the band formerly known as Brother Wiley when it happened.

I called up the photo of it on my phone and stared at it while walking. I started walking down the street repeating the phrase over and over so that I could memorize it.
If dreams were fire and lightning was desire, this old house would have burned down a long time ago.
If dreams were fire and lightning was desire, this old house would have burned down a long time ago.
If dreams were fire and lightning was desire, this old house would have burned down a long time ago.

I can't figure out if the words are lyrics to an old song or something. But it just seemed appropriate that it be in my head since the day before I was at a songwriter festival where I heard some amazingly talented musicians. That's a link to one of my new favorite artists. The sole solo cd I bought at the festival. Sarah Hughes. I wonder if she's ever played in Winfield.

It was raining, a big tent was up and I would have been just fine if the tent wasn't even there. I love the rain.
