Or, in its full title, Committed: A Poem of a Heartier Nature. I make the cool concessions; Perched on the pretty little branch, I am sweetened by the sun, I am blissful, lazy, downright crazy – This is the time for work to be done. I give you up, I hunker down; I risk tripping […]
Pressure building up, Holding on to my reason, Storing up my time. Still working on the NaNo, and all my other projects – I hope to take some time for myself to just calm down, so Thanksgiving break will be that time. Let me know if you want to hang out because I’ll be in […]
Ode to Food at A Fancy Restaurant: A Detailed Account of My Dinner Bread selection, bread selection, hit the spot just right – Tomato basil’s bright but ciabatta wins the night.Merry merry start with the ravioli tart, with some sweet cranberry, no pancetta if you please –Middle, hit the middle, with a tender tender loin,Mashed potatoes […]
My job at the library is reading zines. For 8-9 hours per week, I am forced (forced!) to read and write up descriptions of zines from the 70s all the way through the present. And, unlike other mundane jobs, it actually makes me want to do many things – like roller derby, feminist activism, writing […]

So, I didn’t post here for a few days partially out of lack of time and partially out of lack of inspiration. I think I’m going to cool my dogged daily determination for posts and just try to get it all out when I need to. I am going to do probably a mondo-post [or […]
Today is just a photo and this brief self-worth poem [written by me]: “I will make my days make meaning,Even as the darkest skies do cross,That long horizon.” Check out some more posts featuring my photography.More poetry is also available for your perusal.
I haven’t been able to write in a few days or so, and I think it’s really throwing me off. I guess I am going to just write a completely rough draft in less than 20 minutes.So, here it goes: The Crash CourseRING!! Here the parting shots,Of your distant dissonance, barely waking you up from […]
This is my -ish idea about Midsummer. I don’t know why I would write a poem… but hey!Also, Darryl the test-taking penguin, made a debut today – and hence his face is immortalized now forever. Forever. Either side? It will displease.These wheezing wedding words were thrown,Upon the ground where no man’s trail,Would seize upon this […]
