Home & Inward

"Suddenly I realize
That if I stepped out of my body I would break
Into blossom."

James Wright, A Blessing

POEMS!

Oh thank you poems, thank you InDigest. This one is for Jessica Yen.

The reading on Sunday was wonderful fun. More to come on that. But all the loveliest people in the world came out.

Thank you & besos.

Reading Tomorrow..

Come out and join us tomorrow!

Picture this: It's warm inside on a snowy Sunday afternoon.
You're enjoying a little cocktail, or hot chocolate, or green tea.
You're enjoying the fact that we've all won the fellowship
that supports you for the rest of your life and we're all looking
real good wearing our genuis grants as clothing,
petting our unicorns, and saving the world.

Then some poetry happens.

Sounds lovely no?

I've updated the website. I'd like to tell you I've accomplished lots of other things too, but alas, it is quiet in my head and I'm enjoying that. Happy New Moon. Start new. Be a baby.

Snow & Poems & Strep Throat

First we walked in the snow:




Then I got strep throat, which I still have. And I am still in the same spot as I was on Sunday night.

Then these came out. Yay poems.

Thanks for all your good wishes. My purr will be back to normal soon.
