Steel Notes Magazine
Ladies and Gentlemen and Children of All Ages ... My name is Marlowe B . West and I am your Ring Leader ... Ya know ... I really dig this gig ... Being Star Reporter of the ever growing into glory Steel Notes Magazine for the past three years has been such a blast ... It has allowed me to share my awesome and adventurous escapades along this wondrous journey we all call Life ... Usually I take my loyal readers and fans deep inside the superficial exterior lives of the extraordinary people who cross my path here on this present plane of our physical existence ... However , this month I am taking full advantage of the wonders and magic of being the most imaginative and resourceful writer ... I am taking you all with me in a very different direction ... " So fasten your seat belts ...", as Bette Davis said in All About Eve "... It ' s going to be a bumpy ride ." ... As we venture into the past .
Yes ... We are already barreling through the time barrier ... Past the magnificent Chimera ... those faithful , vicious dog-like guards ... who have been appointed by The Fates to watch over the Gates ... Awaiting lesser trespassers ... like us ... who have to have a good reason to even attempt to go back in time ... It has been said that " Once you cross it ' s borders you can never return again !!!" ... Against the law ... Against the grain ... Unless you possess this Golden Key .
Do any of you know what the Golden Key is and where to get it ??? ... You should all know the answer ... It is Love ... and it ' s only found in the Young at Heart ... There is no age limit to be Young at Heart ... True Love is Golden ... It has the power and is permitted to break down the walls that grow thicker and taller with time in a world filled with hate ... Like layers upon layers of cobwebs , age is capable of gaining volumn and weight which builds walls that can hold you back and keep you further away from the pure and radiant Life we were all originally born to live .
Thus ... in the hour of our awareness ... we find ourselves in the lovely neighborhood Garden of Saint Valentine ... where the essence of True Love prevails ... Here we wander trance-like until we stumble upon the shrine of Rodolfo Alfonso Raffaello Pierre Filibert Guglielmi di Valentina d ' Antonguella , professionally known as Rudolph Valentino ... an Italian-American film actor who was admired as the ‘ Great Lover ’ of the 1920s ... How sad he is no longer around to be interviewed ... but ... The Fates have summoned up the next best thing ... one of his greatest and truest most sincere fans was destined to meet us here ... Her name is Eleanor Gribbin and she will serve as medium ... from the Silver Screen beyond the Pearly Gates .
