Should a blog entry be hard to write? I’ve been trying to write this for awhile, but that whole Logos thing really threw me. Now instead of logophilia, I’ve worried so much that it might appear like I have logorrhea that it has given me logophobia. I just can’t seem to get anything written. So [...]

that first big mall i visited,
where I saw that book that made me think,
but I could not tell
him in the car after.
where the tuxedos of bright white waited for my prom,
the first place where shoes were bought
for a wedding,
not the last.
the last place where I saw my father alive,
the first place I landed,
after he died,

Today was as shocking day for me. A scaffolding fell from a construction site at Emerson, three people were killed, two construction workers and a person in a car just passing by at the wrong moment. I was shocked, not by the event, by my reaction. I can’t say I felt much. I went out [...]

“By looking up I see downward.”
Tycho Brahe
I’m not sure I believe in astrology. I’m not saying I don’t either. Whenever I read a horoscope, the irony of what has been written doesn’t escape me, but I think that can be attributed to skillful, coy writing. Sometimes though the prophecy does send a chill down [...]

I heard a Robin this morning as I was waking. I haven’t seen one yet, but maybe today. Spring really is in the air, full of promise. It is a pregnant time for me too. Lots of possiblitiy, some of it risky, I suppose, and all of it up to me. And my daughter is [...]

I had it all set. It had taken me a few blocks, but everything was balanced. My hat was on just right, holding my new cheap earphones in place. If I don’t have the hat on right, all I hear is treble, forget the bass. I guess I’ll have to get new headphones when it [...]

The blog is a week old now and I’m pretty happy with it. The feedback from friends has been positive, well mostly.Dar said, “Fabulous. I’m so glad — you’re a great writer and an interesting thinker and you should use those talents. Others should enjoy them. Arcs and circles indeed. But how can you be [...]
