your contributions have been noted. i will count slowly down from ten. can you feel anything when i do this? both terrible and wonderful. we’re closing our borders but opening our hearts. unto the fourth generation. this is the same sort of nonsense we’ve become accustomed to from the likes of you. our profound disappointment [...]
wrote this poem awhile back for/about a friend of mine, and recently got permission to post it. it’s a reflection on certain events that were going on in her life at the time, and now that i think on it, it’s also a bookend of sorts to a Weird Blues song brother haptown wrote waaay [...]

from my friend Vicki, via Twitter:
- wistfully remembering the days when I wrote poetry instead of getting myself ensnared in impossible battles between warring ideologues.
- being the object of suspicion and speculation among would-be allies, because I have this habit of eviscerating sacred metaphorical cows.

witness his madness on flickr. his account is dead, so this google search linking all his flickr comments will have to suffice for the patient and easily amused/horrified. this is certainly one of the weirder fetishes i’ve run across, partially because (astonishingly) it’s not one i’m into. i’ve searched the dark corners of my Id, [...]
Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib? Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee? Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him? Wilt thou believe him, that he [...]

night on the beach, no moon, no stars, the sand a cliff overlooking a black roaring nothing the size of everything. i run alongside, screaming that i love you, my words drowned in the wind, cold, tide rising, until i cannot remember what came before running, before aching, before loving. back in the car i [...]
this is fun – a music video on Blender.com featuring The Trucks. it contains footage from their Easy Street Records show that i photographed for the Three Imaginary Girls interview. my back makes a brief cameo at the very end as i’m photographing the girls; look for my bizarre hairline wedge, whose appearance will certainly [...]
i got a nod from the Capitol Hill Seattle blog for my photos of the neighborhood; amusingly enough, they referred to me as a she. which is fun, but i decided it was best to thank them for the attention and correct their evaluation of my gender…
sigh. the assimilation continues, thanks to JPG Magazine.
i wake up and try to remember what needs to be done on this new day by picturing what’s written on my online calendar. i misplace my keys, or wonder what’s become of my old eight-track tapes, and start to reach for Google. i can’t remember if a particular someone attended the party i went [...]
