moon clouds

i learned it by watching you

i learned it by watching you
what the kid screamed at the dad who wanted to know
where he got his drugs in the 80's just say no commercial

i learned it by watching you
puts all the blame back on the dad
guilt regret pain punish

i learned it by watching you
can be the highest compliment paid a person
if what they learned is useful

set an example

happy birthday aunt jo-ran!

i hope your birthday is better than a football game!

snow day?

middle of the night
nose pressed to the cold glass pane
smells like windex & paint & dust
every exhale fogs up higher
how fast is it falling
how big are they
everything washed in light brown golden pink
like olden days pictures
can't see to the street it's so thick
hear plows go by leaving fat diagonal hatch footprints
so the commuters can get out
didn't do my homework
looks like it won't matter
snow on boots rubber will squeak through halls for weeks
i'm turning off the alarm

ABCDElephants?

AB, CD Elephants?

MNO Elephants.

OSAR, CMP?


i think this was taught to me by 8th grade earth sciences teacher, Mr. Boyd. it's hard to look at scantron bubble sheets the same way again, without seeing thousands of rows of ABCDElephants. here was Mr. Boyd doing an experiment in the Stimson yearbook.



and here's what he signed in my yearbook -



he was the only teacher i had sign that yearbook. the rabbit he made is re: our 8th grade science project - Erin and I did one on PETA and testing bunnies, mainly so we could bring our rabbits (hers = Smokey, mine = Barney) into school, where they ran around crapping all over Mr. Fullam's english classroom.

dukie bingo

a game played at carolina by mcbabe wester & i & a few others mainly during an election law class taught by a wonderful professor whose voice reminded me too much of pat (it's time for androgyny - here comes pat!) from saturday night live to ever focus on what she was saying.

you make a bingo square (tic-tac-toe with a square around it), put the nicknames of fellow classmates who went to duke undergrad in each box, FREE in the middle. wait for them to raise their hands to ask/answer questions, cross off their nicknames X out their box and try to get 3 across, up down or diagonal - first one to do so says in street voice "BINGO" as the dukie is spouting and his or her box is x'ed and they win.

as i recall, i was the only winner and i won twice in 2 different classes and said bingo in my normal voice. many classes ended with nobody getting 3 across. sometimes it came down to the last box and so many dukies would have their hands up, a sea of dukie hands to choose, it was exciting.
it really made endless tuesday thursday classes okay.

the skies are not cloudy all day

only getting better

a day that starts with 'collecting' urine & fecal samples for your dog has nowhere to go but up

take that 80s

peace haiku 30-36

respite from the clock
released from the pressure of
time for a second

mind races finding
new categories spaces
then snacks interfere

evergreen ever
moist ever fresh every day
a garden to tend

how do we know it's
not lightning hitting ocean
creating cells life

sometimes dancing by
himself was the best way to
know he was alive

it's hard to work hard
on a tropical island
don't blame the natives

good stuff on sale &
cute boys from different schools on
good days at the mall

fire across the street last night

the house across the street is burning & it's surreal



fire trucks are there, doesn't seem to be any real danger, they're letting people get up close, just a lot of smoke

that's how close it is - the white part is my door

not the best mexican in hillcrest

here i am lord

view from kitchen window 1/3/7

remembering dreams

thoughts like dreams like empty plastic bag in the corner of an empty room
if i rush at it the force of my wind will keep pushing it up out & away
if i inch closer & earn its trust i might be able to read it

good boys with the shirt and chair

petaling

old year new year san diego

my bunny flies over the ocean

cuts come not from
sharp knives but
dull ones
pushed too hard

sexy mussels

if you want to smile, just say 'lengthy extensions'
