I find it very funny that when my mother’s ancestors sailed to the New World in 1609, they had to take a northerly route to avoid the piratical ancestors of my father.
Y’know that in most societies, death is pretty much accepted, even celebrated. Everything from ancestor worship to Dia de los Muertes. The US is very squeamish about death … which may in part explain why our health care costs so much: Too much demand.
That would be me. I was never one for all that frilly stuff. Although, my vanity table is all pink & pretty with pretty little pink antique things scattered around to make me happy. My motorcycle was gonna get tricked out as well, with pearl white & lots of lacey things on the tank. The rest would have been chrome & flames & a dragons foot for the kick stand. It would have been beautiful & ever so cool!

Looks pretty traditional. It’s all about which side of tradition you follow.

The rest of your squares look like rejects from the summer of love. A few magic brownies perhaps?

And you see me stepping out in the morning
Looking nice with a ribbon in my hair
And the ship
The Black Freighter
Runs a flag up its masthead
And a cheer rings the air
