Ukulele Feedback: Keep the Change
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2015/03/keep-change.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Sunday, March 8, 2015. I walk like an octopus. Across the parking lot. Bathed in gray-gold sunlight. While asthmatic palm trees whisper. Like tumbleweeds in a refrigerator. It’s Sunday on Earth. I’m burning matches beneath the tidewater. Architecture and shattered pipes. With mudslide tremors and gaited horses. Contrary to the haze (my legacy). The ocean’s inlaid chrome is all lit up. Like a kamikaze hood ornament. There are more direct roads to bliss. It is what it is.

Ukulele Feedback: November 2014
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Friday, November 21, 2014. We Had a Shared Medical Condition. What it was held up to a patchwork sky. Leaning in on the serpentine coast. Darker than that god you used to pray to. At every roadside shrine we passed. I decided that you eyes were. Like the pigeons of the Holy Ghost. Roosting upon the Temple of Ephesus at dawn. Or was it the Ventura pier at sunset? Either way the rustling of wings. Took me back to the palm trees of Venice. Every day on my way to the beach.

Ukulele Feedback: Air Guitar (8 & 9)
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2015/08/air-guitar-8-9.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Air Guitar (8 and 9). Torching the pier with. Su Tung-p’o, Mayakovsky, little John the Conqueroo. The Jesuit surf team as light filtered down through the. Mexican rock and roll made the sidewalk crooked. On a re-direct from aliens who were handing out popsicles. Ocean Park the summer of 1975. I was wiping the rain from my drugstore RayBans. Like Rimbaud at Punta Baja. The sky blue ’64 El Camino had a backstory that would. She hands me a speargun.

Ukulele Feedback: February 2015
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. What happens is the way the weather changes. Or the sun sitting a few inches higher in the sky. Bending back along the wings of 3 pelicans. Gliding above the surfline…. A fistful of sand and a rippling curtain of mist. Is about all I’m going to need for the forseeable. PART TWO (later that same day):. The collected writings of Chuang-Tzu. Balancing on the broken neck of a tequila bottle. A skate wheel, an avocado, the nape. Ocean W A V E S .

Ukulele Feedback: The Late Late Show
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-late-late-show_1.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Friday, May 1, 2015. The Late Late Show. It’s easy to get tired watching Lolita. I might almost say it’s a sedative but my pharmaceutical experience. Steers me in another direction altogether. The moonlight drifting in through the venetian blinds. Made me think of neon blurred in the fogmist at Hermosa Beach. Not unlike the headlights of a submarine trolling the midnight streets. I had to catch the replay in glorious technicolor. Coming soon from UDP. The Late Late Show.

Ukulele Feedback: May 2015

PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Sunday, May 31, 2015. NEW - Curse of the Surf Zombie. Opstedal's noir palette covers a large swath of the California Coast, from Pismo to RCA. Loaded with atmospherics, like Turner at his edgiest. Let there be light, but wear 'dark glasses', and of course, watch out for weather forecasts that call for 'partly sunny w/a prevailing sense of impending doom'.John Donne comes to mind, early and late." - Donald Guravich.

Ukulele Feedback: Last Tango in Shangri-La
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2015/03/last-tango-in-shangri-la_24.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Tuesday, March 24, 2015. Last Tango in Shangri-La. The late afternoon sky was like something. Miss Montana 1979 spilled on her bikini. Out near the ice machine. At the Sea Garden Motel. The light was all. Dancing across the pavement. Inside the sound of gears grinding. Just a block from the beach. Pulse of the tide. Propped against a chainlink fence. It was like the Ark of the Covenant. Dissolving in a shot glass. All smudged with lipstick. Coming soon from UDP.

Ukulele Feedback: August 2014
http://bluepressbooks.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
PLEASE HELP BLUE PRESS STAY AFLOAT. Sunday, August 24, 2014. A Crash Course in Circular Breathing. Melodic birdnotes and bedsprings. Providing all the commentary required. The doll-like way she. Sleeps in my dreams. Her heart playing electric bongos you. Hold to your ear like a seashell. Because this time you’re really listening. But then something she said. Made me feel as though I was. Peering through the stained glass windows. Of a Coupe de Ville. Parked on the bottom of the sea…. He said she said.
