TRUTH FROM A BLUTH
And so for some reason, George and Lucille Bluth are my parents and we are living in a rather elaborate treehouse. I’m not sure what happened to the old model home.

IT AMAZES ME
It amazes me I think in blue rhyme of language splattered across sullen minds of timid boys pistol whipped by sergeants and bullied into this transgression by subconscious dreams. Hidden desires left unfermented fossilized in back reaches we cross that land avoiding Mongol warriors & wicked con artists. And of fire these eyes burn intenselyContinue reading “IT AMAZES ME”

DAY OF RECKONING
Sitting at the Trestle Inn indulging in a Trestlewide. There’s a candle on the table and a video on the wall. It’s footage of Nancy Sinatra presumably singing “These Boots Are Made for Walking” but there’s no audio. There’s a young lady on stage in the backroom dancing some go-go. I snap a couple pictures of the dancer that comeContinue reading “DAY OF RECKONING”
