Watch Out For Tozzi’s Toesies


Venturing to my previous post, I had included the artwork used for the cover of The Ladder, a monthly magazine published by the  Daughters of Bilitis, a Lesbian Organization.  So, the woman at left is musician  Patti Smith, who I thought looked like the woman portrayed on the Magazine’s cover, with the relevancy being that just recently, while following another lead, I ended up on Patti Smith’s “Horses” album.  What makes this that much more “timely” is that horses crop up in my previous post.  So, there’s definitely a “Horses Theme” pattern cluster in the works.  

As you can see in the image below, on left is Patti on the cover of her Horses album with a very androgynous look that’s similar to the woman sketch on The Ladder Magazine—both have long thin faces and a similar cheekbone structure.  To the right of the image is a blow-up of the pin that’s on the Jacket slung over Patti’s shoulder.  It’s hard to see it on the album hence why I enlarged it— it’s a HORSE… obviously!! 

At the time, I. Had decided to drop the post, at least for the moment, given its complexity… and subject matter that I find disturbing, … and controversial.  This is a prompt to pick up the dropped thread.  

It all began with the following notable person recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2025 site: 

Jack White, 85, German footballer (Viktoria KölnPSV Eindhoven), composer, and record producer ("Gloria").[57] (body discovered on this date)
  • Jack White (born Horst Nußbaum; 2 September1940 – 16 October 2025) German composer, producer and footballer 

Note his birth name Horst is an addition to the “Exchange Letter in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster , and so making “HORSE” !!  And his surname NuBbaum contains a cryptic “new bomb”?!  He is renown for the song Gloria, … butt, while investigating I came to realize that there are two distinctly different “Gloria” songs popular at the time— the one that Jack White played a hand in is Tozzi’s Gloria, and the other is Van Morrison’s.  Patti Smith sang her poetic version of Van Morrison’s Gloria.  

On Tozzi’s Gloria (song) wikipedia page, it didn’t have a very clear image of the album’s picture sleeve, so I tried to find a better one, and in doing so, the following was brought up: 

Gloria (Shadows of Knight album)

So, note the “Knight”… and note my recent October 16th post title re: Judah Knight 22!!  This is definitely another lead, note the following from the album’s wiki page:

Gloria is the first album by the Shadows of Knight, released in 1966 on Dunwich Records 666. The title track, a cover of the song by Them, became the group's biggest hit, reaching number 10 on the Billboard charts.

WhoaNote the 666 (aka ^^^ … the number 6 shares the same key on my iPad as the ^ “roof” symbol… so a very loud “roof roof roof” … that can also be seen as a cryptic warning bark ruff ruff ruff)!!!  This is their Gloria album cover: 

There is only one notable person who played in their band who has a wikipedia page, so a prompt to investigate: 

Jerry McGeorge  rhythm guitar, backing vocals 
  • Jerry McGeorge (born October 22, 1945)

TODAY is Jerry McGeorge’s Birthday!!  Yet another addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster.  

So, I looked butt couldn’t find a better copy of Tozzi’s Gloria album sleeve, so I settled for what’s available, … what looks to be a young Tozzi leaping away from something… butt what?! 


Okay,.. now the photo rings a cryptic bell!!  First of all consider the fact that I’m assuming that the surname Tozzi sounds like “toesie”… you know when talking playfully (informal) referring to toes as “toesies”.  So when looking at the above photo  I get the sense of “watch out for your toesies”, … well it does look like he’s trying to swivel his toesies away from danger of sorts, … and “shark” did factor in a recent post, butt the photo sort of reminds me of an art work I created awhile back to portray a section of my novel (its a novel with graphic art sections).  In this particular scene I have my main character escaping the vicious jaws of a croc that she’s about to capture (yep… capture…, and she had to watch out for her toesies in the process).  Now the above photo re Tozzi, could be a frame depicting the very stance of my character just before she flips to avoid the jaws:







My other scenes for the art work I entitle “stalking croc”, … and yes the croc is stalking my main character, butt little does it know that she is stalking the croc!!  



Just a little spoiler: my character has no intention of killing the croc, that is not her way or that of her tribe.  Her intention is to capture it and restrain it in a way that is extremely uncomfortable for the croc, …  so it becomes fearful of humans and won’t any longer venture into the tribe’s sea-foraging territory within the mouth of their tidal river.  By not killing invading crocs, those captured learn an healthy fear of humans and so know enough never to return, and in the meantime, forcing the croc back to their own territory up river, also forces them to fight other crocs in their existing territory.   


Tou Bee Continued…
