"Thus says the Lord..." by Julie Moore

 

 
Patti Smith - I don't think she's a
prophet, but I really like her shirt!


My husband has a singular sense of humor. He has a phenomenal memory, and obscure references and repetition figure pretty heavily into it. Not everybody gets it, but I really do.

Because back in college he once found himself in one of those "deep" late-night discussions with a theatre major, in which she declared that artist/songwriter Patti Smith was a "prophet." Obviously, he thought it was funny, since it pops out again and again... and I can't say for sure that Patti Smith ISN'T a prophet, but according to what I have gathered from my studies, she seems to be a bit too cool to be a prophet... in the historical / Biblical sense.
