The First Word Found Behind Each Buckle Belt that one out at breakneck, why don’t you? We’re already all the way back to 2006, and things are generally fine (I rem ember wine and fine dining, Valentine’s and rolls of twine). Papaw, a numismatist, got us already  worn-looking leather belts  apiece, each with its own shimmering bicentennial $ coin. “Heads, you win ..read more

Unorthodox Plop It was the end of another era. I had broken my reading glasses. This happened, I want to say often? But it hasn’t been often that I’ve afforded such luxuries. I could add these days but fail to comprehend at the moment how to succinctly discern them from any other. With any distinction.  Although to begin, I could squeal how once upon a time that might’ve been the glitter that defined. I squinch my eyes into a steep scarp trying to make something out of this. But slap the alarm, who am I kidding? Unlike the gorgeous sky, were it not so damned dark, I’m downright indisting ..read more

Great Form, Croc Ask for information regarding. Four years ago, October. Follow up with which one? The dead one, probably. Regrettably. You will never know. And when the man says he has no regrets whatsoever, you’d better believe him ..read more

A Fuzzier Plane of Existence I exist on a fuzzier plane, in general, I’d say. But if we were to talk grossest area of fuzziness, then we might have to start again from scratch ..read more

Botched Surgical Email I dug out an email with the subject “Dir. Gen. Surgery Division.” The next thing you know, it appears that I’m quoting Emily Dickinson. The bottom two-thirds of the torn out full-sized originally spiral-bound sheet is some sort of attempt at rejiggering somebody’s family tree or, and this regrettably is much more likely, a company’s organizational chart ..read more

Today’s Terror Today’s terror is too much food. That is my favorite terror. I don’t usually like terror but this is one terror that I can get behind ..read more

2 Days 3 conversations about gingers. No call to Ginger, but I should call her later today, say hi to her tomorrow. Don’t put off to tomorrow what can be done today, is that the way the saying crumbled? Kevin says it’s the year of a particular dragon, the Wood Dragon. I insist I’ve taken a step back from that nonsense, but now am curious. He says it’s going to be an entrepreneurial year. I write two extra lines in hopes ..read more

Keep In Mind And with breakneck speed, examine for the purposes of hair cleanliness, diagram of faction. Questions of what is happening on the 1st of September. No, send 1st to Steph anie? Partiality for fe male/gay. Particularly? Questions about what’s haps. Happening. Radar: broad-based magazines. Also, think about Naropa ..read more

People That Grow Up, Though I’d like to have a very serious engagement with several of them to see what they think this means so I can determine whether or not I have achieved such an accomplishment (if an accomplishment such a thing is), and how they got there and maybe see if they think I have made progress in such matters. Today I worked on filling out disability forms. I do not want to be on disability but try to remain proactive as I’ve tried like mad to get a job for how many years now and still do not have one. This is not a sonnet unless one wants to be snooty or perhaps more open ..read more
