New Photo Gallery Tab

I’ve decided to post photos from time to time when I get a good body of them together. The gallery can be found at the menu on top. It’s the tab next to the “About” tab. I also revamped this part of my site and am going to make a few changes to the overall layout of the site.

A response to this post on my favorite blog.

Haiku in a Parking Lot

he breathes out a laugh:
an embarassing moment
and no witnesses.

Tree at night with clouds and stars

Another list of mostly unrelated items

A lost stuffed animal: The smaller of the two faces still flushed with tears, they are pressed and belted into their cramped seats on the airplane. Suddenly they sit still like does. The woman relates their predicament to the flight attendant, who has just arrived.

Eating honey: As it bends the light reflected off the surface underneath, a slick golden tentacle of new honey curls off the larger bulk that has wrapped itself around a spoon.

A lost sock: Like a hieroglyphic, a tiny child’s sock soaked with rain sits atop a gate post, which serves as an impromptu lost and found. It will be frozen tomorrow morning, and then later will thaw in the sun of the afternoon. Its sole is dotted with white rubber traction spots which, when the sock is worn, would grip the world like squid suction cups.

Altitude: Listen to the racket of a hundred birds, the countless shapes and layers of fallen leaves. A balletic cry in the wilderness. The sharp beaks, wings working to gain precious altitude.
