Love
I am starting to wonder about how everyone throws around the term ” I love you ” so much. Has it lost it’s meaning? Does it mean things for different people? Should we be more careful with our words or throw caution to the wind? Is it all about actions anyway?

Ringing
Been a while since I blogged. Or wrote.
So today I went back to yoga after many weeks of hiatus. Hiatus makes it sound like a vacation which it was not. My back has been out. Out to where? I don’t know. But, it certainly is not on the same page as me.
So I went to my teacher’s class ( Annie Carpenter, the one and only.) At the end of class I heard a noise which made me want to run...

“Life is demand and supply, or supply and demand, that’s what it all boils down to, but that’s no way to live. A third leg is needed to keep the table from collapsing into the garbage pit of history, which in turn is permanently collapsing into the garbage pit of the void. So take note. This is the equation: supply + demand + magic. And what is magic? Magic is epic and it’s also...

You become mature
When you become
The authority for your own life.

The Deaf Poet
The thick jelly roll of noise
Filled with soft syllables and unspoken words
Is all around you if you just
Open the ear in your heart
And tune the fork
Which vibrates in you
Always
And which knows
when something is said
even if it isn’t.
I am the deaf poet.
I hear you
Clamoring up there in your head
Fighting with your own thoughts who
Use swords and knives
And vicious words to win.
Relying on...
It takes courage
To do what you want.
Other people
have a lot of plans for...

An Open Letter To Your...
“My music is alive and it’s about the living and the dead, about good and evil.
It’s angry yet it’s real because it knows it’s angry”

The DREAMER
.
There is a laugh that wakes you
from dead sleep-
Snuggled inside of a dream.
The noise unrecognizable from your own throat.
A shameless cackle, half-giggle in heritage
Sits safe in your cords until
this laugh escapes, wakes-
You, a startled deer in your bed, your own
Laugh skipping as with legs across the room-
Shrinking and shirking like an idea
made pointless by someone else’s better...
Just got this email from a friend...

The Secret Lives of Elephants or On Being Deaf
Maybe elephants can hear mountains.
Maybe each mountain range creates a different sound,
A different tone when the wind blows over it.
A soundscape as vivid as a landscape,
Only visible to an elephant’s ears.
I am like an elephant.
With my tinnitus : (the perception of sound within the human ear
in the absence of corresponding external sound)
I can hear the mountains talking to me,
I can hear...
Romance: A Fairy Tale
Romance: A Fairy Tale
When I finally realized who I was I wanted to go out and screw the world.
One man at a time.
I thought it only fair that everyone get a chance to see what I got.
My first victim, unassuming enough.
In fact, I cannot even recall what he was wearing.
His pants, were they green or a dark blue. Jeans maybe?
The color of his eyes.
The color of his hair.
Was there a gap in his...

Letting Go
Letting Go
It got me wondering, this whole business of letting go,
What a thing to say!
I’m hearing it everywhere:
On the street someone whispers it into their cell phone,
Girl, you have to let it go. He’s horrible to you. You deserve better.
The yoga teacher insists upon it: Inhale, and with the next exhale,
Let it go, relax your shoulders, melt your heart toward the mat.
The books, the endless...
