There was something going on this past 1st Wednesday...something out of our control...out of anyone's control. Like the moths attraction to the light, we were drawn to Mad Swirl's Open Mic Night at Absinthe Lounge. The mad mic was opened and thru it came swirling words and sounds from poets & musicians & miscellaneous mad ones from all around this mad, mad Metroplex.
Together we unlocked the door of imagination and beyond it found another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. We crossed the line between here and there, lurid and lucid, sane and insane. We moved into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. We went head first into the Mad Swirl Zone.
Mad thanks to those who crossed the line on 12.03.08...
