Watching The Queen's Gambit - Happy 80th Pele - Poem: My new Favorite PJs

Who he?

Pele turns 80!


And I, Ruth Zali Deming, am watching on Netflix 

The Queen's Gambit


Wait! Are those liqueur bottles on the chess board? 

I think the mini-series is almost over. Don't give away the end. Our Sue Harmon is in Moscow. No, not Moscow, Iowa but Moscow, Soviet Union.

Never having been a nail-biter, I was stuffing myself with Triscuits.

MY FAVORITE PJs

My blue and white PJs

the color of Wedgwood

hug my body like a fallen

autumn leaf hugs the highway

or like the moon hugs the sky

I feel like all things are possible

and I am born anew.


These are a former pair of PJs which were so old they began to tear until I couldn't wear them anymore. I used swatches of them in art projects.
