shakyside sean's shpace: September 2013
http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 20, 2013. The train engine bell. In its urgent, mechanized march. Could raise a panic in me. It was a summoning of worry. An invocation of concern. A reminder that the beginning of the end was at hand. A clang - clang - clang and you're mine all mine, hand it over, hand it over, I need your heart just to fool 'em again. A classic submission move. A cadence just quick enough to awaken chemical defenses. But something seems to have changed. Could it be my way of thinking? They probably wo...

http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2012. Yesterday morning, the traincar was all stillness, like a temple lumbering over the rails, like a body of water that has never known agitation. Today, it is all motion, inside and out; a den of idiosyncrasy:. A man speaking awful fast about new fibre optic TV. A woman who tears the newspaper, long and luxuriously, over and over, as if everything is fascinating. A right snoring fellow, short enough to lay himself flat out on the seats, startling with his snorts. Since 1848...

shakyside sean's shpace: Why I Run, pt. 3
http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2013/09/why-i-run-pt-3.html
Thursday, September 19, 2013. Why I Run, pt. 3. Part of the thing with running along the downtown waterfront in T.O. is that you have to negotiate crazybusy traffic arteries and their colossal sentinels, the condo towers, in order to get there. And back. Near the stadium, on a street called Navy Wharf, (which is NOT a wharf at all) there are a few such condo colossi. One in particular is haunted. Not by ghosts, but by memory. We were all innocents on the journey, devastated by what was happening to Matth...

shakyside sean's shpace: Gonna Change Again and Again
http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2015/04/gonna-change-again-and-again.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. Gonna Change Again and Again. I listen to 'Gonna Change My Way of Thinking' a lot. It's a diamond set on the dusty road through Bob Dylan's conversion to Christianity. It's a repudiation of the power games, cravenness, violence, persecution, hypocrisy, alienation, self-hatred, and apathy that we meet in this world. Gonna change my way of thinking. Make myself a different set of rules. Gonna put my good foot forward,. Stop being influenced by fools. Anyway, it's hardly an emotion...

shakyside sean's shpace: A Tangent
http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2013/11/a-tangent.html
Friday, November 8, 2013. I read an article a while back and got the impression that the Environment Minister isn't comfortable uttering the words 'climate change'. Which is strange, because she's from the Arctic. I wonder if it's because the government is not keen on certain kinds of science. My pal Finley does well working on the oil pipes in Alberta. He welds. The western cities are booming. I hear stories of towns awash in lonesome men with cash. He does it for his family. Another Blog I Made.

shakyside sean's shpace: May 2013
http://shakyside.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 17, 2013. May 13 'round 6. Like a giant followspot fired up. Trained on the prostrate actor. A bedside lamp suddenly lit. By the one charged with awakening. The sun itself pulls me from sleep in the cradle of the train. After a split-second of indignant whaaa-? The most beautiful truth is realized: I have been roused by nothing less than the rising sun itself. I can drift back into slumber, let it illuminate the eyelids. Imagine a bed of foraged things. Monday, May 13, 2013. May 13 round 6.

Monday, January 6, 2014. When we're together, we may bark, or snip, or growl, but from our little hearth, arm in arm, we meet it all, small dispute or great disaster, the joy that brings tears, and the tears that try to drown the joy. And before long we must pick up and go out into our various worlds, which we forget are all one. And when we come back to each other, we are grateful, so very grateful, that we're reminded of why we yearn for time off together in the first place. Everything begins again.
