with skin that read: shake her well
after worship and
milk
& sweet time - GOD
a knife out and sweating in my hand
behind my cold monkey of a lie
was bare feet and falling.
I ask her: can you smile
like the sea in its juices?
can you remember that chant to
make mountains drool?
teach me something precious
so I can l(ea)ve you
she says: I am the wind, kid,
and this is the family you come from.
It's so great to be writing again. I just sat down in front of my fridge and cranked this baby out. My favorite way to write is with refrigerator magnets (this may have had something to do with the naming of this blog). It's great because it forces me to find new things to do with words that should have been stale long ago but it also works as a very strict form to help guide my creative process.
3 recent photo pet peeves:
- Figurines. Just don't.
- Picture every day for X years. That first youtube video was pretty interesting, but I'm done.
- Your baby. I don't care how cute it is.
I should be clear. I mean specifically photography as an art form. I won't criticize you for taking pictures of your baby. If you don't want to take pictures of your baby there's probably something wrong with you. With that said, you've got do a lot more than just take pictures of your baby and call it art.
I've been trying to use stumble upon to find good photographers but that hasn't been going so well recently so here are a few old favorites from deviantart:

This user is named Kimbell and while light painting is usally a big turn off for me, this guy is a pro.

Sorry I had to resort to back up photos, I wish stumbleupon would give me a little more to work with but there's a remarkable amount of bad photography out there on the internet.
But here's a great summer song to play us out. FUCK IT WE'LL DO IT LIVE!
I like this blog.
