Gravel footsteps pass behind. Hands entwine and then relax. A distant train howls unseen. A carp erupts and then returns. Two travelers love without words. February 27th, 2009 at 2:18 am by Colleen. Ivory skinned, doe-eyed devastation. A slight tilt of her head elegantly murders time. She runs from desire, but baits it.

February 27th, 2009 at 2:18 am by Colleen. Ivory skinned, doe-eyed devastation. A slight tilt of her head elegantly murders time. Yet for all the grace in her delicate, musical fingers,. Happiness seems to slide through them – unclaimed. She runs from desire, but baits it. It is her wound and balm. So quiet is her heartsong. Muffled by trivial distraction, demanding patrons. Though her true worth is in the melody,. She fears the fleetingness of form and. Desperately claws for purchase. 183; TrackBack URL.

Ceci n’est pas une pipe. August 27th, 2008 at 9:20 pm by Chad. What if everything I know is illusion? Nothing more substantive than images on a television screen? The things I worry about are empty nothings? The things I hold dear are hollow promises? What if the illusion is me? Then so is my worry and so are my loves. And the empty hollow nothing is. Unworthy of self indulgent. Feed for comments on this post. 183; TrackBack URL. Laquo; 100 Mile Check In. YES, the rules apply to YOU.

Membership has its Suckers. December 1st, 2008 at 4:58 pm by Colleen. I finally found the a great example of irony. It is the titanium or “Centurion” American Express card. The card carries a $2,500 annual fee and requires the card holders to charge more than $250,000 a year. Word is that since they are so new, many Titanium cards are being refused by some merchants who think they are not real, and some customers have had problems with airport metal detectors.

Don’t Use It If You Don’t Get It. February 10th, 2009 at 8:55 pm by Chad. Http:/ www.marketwatch.com/news/story/us-stocks-tumble-biggest-drop/story.aspx? Or maybe just this excerpt:. If you’re searching for an analogy, here’s a better one:. Everyone’s hoping for a crack pipe to pass to the economy to really pep it up and make it feel great and like nothing is wrong, despite all the evidence to the contrary, but the main dealer left Washington in January.

March 19th, 2009 at 2:33 pm by Colleen. Western society encourages fear-based living. Most commercials are formulated “product x” is here to save you from “enemy y”. Even feminine hygiene products are referred to as protection. Protection from what? Embarrassment over our own bodies? Ruining a very expensive pair of designer pants? Why did you spend that much on those pants? Are they really THAT much better or was it a purchase based on fear of being uncool? February 27th, 2009 at 3:56 am by Colleen.

We just got finished expending 2200 water balloons, filled over the last 3 days. It was, again, positively glorious. Test Entry from my iPhone. August 5th, 2008 at 10:46 am by Chad. I got a little application for my iPhone that should let me blog from anywhere. If it works well, I might be making more frequent entries… Here goes nothing! My Lovely Expensive Brick.

March 18th, 2009 at 7:51 pm by Chad. In a disused field. At the end of an untraveled road. Sits an abandoned warehouse. Gives an unseen performance. He has practiced for weeks. Charted the progress of the sun. Across the gritty floor. So the light would be perfect. He plays all the parts. Which is also him. Gives him a standing ovation. And when he bows in gratitude. And mixes with the grit there. And is also quickly forgot. And the flowers outside. Which are not beautiful. Because, he was told once.
