Making Space For Better Things, Finally
Maybe in a way it’s like I put my grief in there too, and when I found it sitting, buried under a heap of all the things I hadn’t made time to sort out yet, after taking everything out, laying strewn around my small space, I dealt with the pieces, one by one, until that suitcase was the only thing left without a place. At … Continue reading Making Space For Better Things, Finally

You Know, Trojan Horses Fool Us All
The history geek that I am, in my spare time I can oft be found on the hunt for a new empire, epoch or otherwise to dive into, and this time it happened to be the Fall of Troy. So down I dove. The lecture I stumbled upon was from a scholar I was familiar, one Eric Cline. In 14 parts of 30 minutes each, … Continue reading You Know, Trojan Horses Fool Us All
Have A Nice Day Get Lost
It was lightly snowing as I walked across the way to the grocery store for bus tickets, passed the shop where I buy my families Christmas presents every year, passed the coolest pet shop in London, eatery, eatery, new eatery, my dentist, the library, a coffee shop, the hardware store, organic eatery and on down to the Black Walnut Cafe (the place to be) to … Continue reading Have A Nice Day Get Lost
Lessons From The Ides Of March
Perhaps spurred on in part by a recent post from a journalist’s blog I have followed for a while, Broadside, in which she was speaking of this chaos, this morass of media that surrounds us, confusing us, at every turn. It’s been like a tsunami of distant proportions has taken over, as if chaos is a constant, and order is blasphemous, almost. I’ve been out … Continue reading Lessons From The Ides Of March
When A Poet Dies
from the London Free Press – Thursday, February 22, 2018: He was a downtown London fixture, the skinny old hippie with the long beard, the rumpled second-hand clothes and a suit jacket covered in buttons, standing outside Joe Kool’s reciting his poetry, happily coaxing the people on Richmond Row to listen and ask what he had in his two heavy, duct-taped plastic bags of papers … Continue reading When A Poet Dies

my thoughts and prayers
from more broken dreams and hollow words, marching one, two, three with a bravery born from of a grievous cupidity colonial fears the hands of a state creates a river of tears beyond their years and through it all, some learned nothing at all before the fall we knew it all, they say, like water flows blind and washes the slate and maybe one day … Continue reading my thoughts and prayers
i found today
these bits and pieces from some other place of here and there we often leave no trace for our delusions, the journey moved us forward. along the banks of it we haunt as knitted caps and the other parts go into the trees, of leaves, the scent of thee breath in the decay, the days, we betray of barking dogs and the hawks overhead hunting … Continue reading i found today
And A Lock Of Gray Was The Key
Ok, so I admit, the only reason I stopped was cause some guy asked me why, and to be honest I really didn’t have an answer. When I started, years ago in my 20’s it was because I wanted my hair to be red, or Auburn, or something more romantic than my bog-standard brown. Over the years, box after box, I went from one red … Continue reading And A Lock Of Gray Was The Key
Of Miracles And Connections On A Rainy Day
Raining in this misty kinda way yesterday, and had to go downtown to pick up a new router from my ISP, hence the photographs I posted yesterday. You know, one stone two birds or whatever that phrase is. The streets were almost deserted, which made my photographic mission a bit more difficult, hard to take portraits, you know, with no subjects, but I prevailed. Ran … Continue reading Of Miracles And Connections On A Rainy Day
