Rolando Relic and I nourished our writers' temperments and musicians' bodies with cups of watermelon gazpacho, tuna salad on wheat (him) and a savory tart made with roasted cherry tomatoes (me) at Auntie Em's Marketplace in Eagle Rock. We were about to head into a music studio with Vox Rox Vesilind and Devilish Diaconescu and go over song ideas. I outlined my song titled "Cube Moves." A stereotypical writer, I described the song using jargon such as lede, narrative and leitmotif. We also discussed the series of heartbreaks besetting my circle of friends. Rolando explained that Mercury is in retrograde. I wondered when Mercury was going to get its ass out of retrograde and leave my loved ones alone. Rolando said the end of the month. I pondered that while sipping my cold watermelon soup blended with cucumber, onions, cilantro and chili flakes. If he's not right, at least I have discovered the perfect soup to nurse broken hearts.
