There’s a poem by William Butler Yeats in which he speculates on, among other things, what Helen of Troy might do alone in her room when she thinks no one is looking…
She thinks, part woman, three parts a child,
That nobody looks; her feet
Practise a tinker shuffle
Picked up on a street.
Like a long-legged fly upon the stream
Her mind moves upon silence.
It’s a mysterious and beautiful poem, worth checking on if you’ve never engaged with it before, worth thinking about. It’s called Long-Legged Fly .
That burst of activity from Petey is simply amazing, a very rare sighting indeed. Unfortunately, still photos won’t do it justice, Madeline; you should have had your video camera….

You’ve got to be careful Petey. Parents are always lurking around trying to embarrass you.

So deep, deep without a meaning
I knew you’d find me leaving
Tell those friends with cameras for eyes
That their hands don’t make me hang
They only make me feel like breathing
In an unguarded moment

If he learns you did that, he’ll never have another unguarded moment, ever again.

It’s wonderful to have tunes play in your head rather than in your earbuds.

And when Petey sees it it will shut down any unguarded moments for fear he’ll be caught again.

I don’t know which is creepier, Petey’s solo or Mom’s stalking and stealth photo.
