November Flying Carpet 2022

 In November
The Flying Carpet
“Let the good times roll”
in New Orleans

Music around every corner

in The French Quarter
Waiting at the Vampire Cafe
but the wait was too long
“let's have a Bloody Mary”

The Backstreet Museum
The Fantastic World
of Mardi Gras Indians


Got our fix
for drugs and beauty

at The Pharmacy Museum

Total juxtaposed wackiness
at Mardi Gras World

Weird Stores with
broken magic boxes
and the Decatur Angel… $5,000.

Saint Louis Cemetery
in the light of day

Found paintings/
found collage/
found assemblage


Special thanks 
to Lion-headed Susan-san
 and Maka Nani

October Flying Caroet 2022

 In October The Flying Carpet
admits to being
a grateful non-recovering
Fall-a-holic

The Flying carpet can ascend
on autumn elation alone

The morning of windy yellows
Las Golandrinas
Farmer's Market:
“Who made your beautiful banner?”
“Grandma made it…
no more… this is the last…
she's 90 years old-- “
 Chencho Ochoa
Red or Green?
Chile is our business

Who painted your great sign?
“I did”she said proudly

Offrenda at the Folk Art Museum
“Earth in Crisis: 
for the souls
of the casualties 
of man made disasters”
Stephanie Riggs
You never know who will be
around the corner

Sometimes 
"there's no place like home”
