absolute music

this song, & this performance, is my favorite by smashing pumpkins.  it is 1992.  anna & i just met.  we are dating.  we are spending the day together.  we take a drive to the delta, that marshy, riverine, region of northern california where the sunlight is just right, the bridges are old-fangled, & the river is perfect in its curvy way.  the road leads to forever, i am sitting beside my great love, optimism is in the air, & this song is playing on the radio.
