I’ve talked about it for years, so now I’ve started it. My little space for restaurant reviews. I’m reviewing places that are friendly to vegans in the “Food for Thought” tab. They aren’t in any particular order, except that I’m going to be putting my new reviews at the top. I’ll start in the Boston [...]

Confession: My Secret Vision

I have a confession.
I’ve started this blog on a farce. I’m (not so) secretly obsessed with a book and two young men that I have not yet told you about: Me to We by Marc & Craig Keilburger.
Let me admit upfront that they have an evangelical air to them. However, I do believe that is just [...]

squeezing,
sucking in,
damn zipper,
open the door and
Oh.
outside my dressing room
or is she on a runway?
caramel, smooth–I’ve never seen
She is beauty; not sex,
but dignity!
She is grace
drones flutter around her,
tending her every wish–
no wishes at the moment.
stops vanity with her eyes
ivory drapes her body,
she doesn’t see me.
Do you like it?
What?
Oh. I think I like the other [...]
Little Girl

spinning girl spinning
she loves the dew between
her toes she loves the white
sky hiding the world
from her eyes
spinning spinning
she loves how her mind dances
while her body spins
to a separate melody
arms out she closes her eyes
she loves being a bird a princess
a fairy and a dandelion seed
in the wind
spinning girl spinning girl
she’s not bothered by the green
stains [...]
PANTS

I wore
your pants today.
They made me
feel sexy, and they
looked damn good.
I liked being inside
what you, too,
were once inside.
I touched the spots
that your curves wore down
and wondered how
my curves would change them.
They made my legs
warm.
you in your white dress
you in your cardboard box
knit creation
create a me for the awkward
stages of life–
ones i tried to forget
repetition repetition repetition
isn’t always helpful,
why create more ordinary?
take the i out of
life, nothing else to do,
let’s make a clone
grown from just legs,
more to come,
a copy
copy

The Elephant Thing: Rough Cuts & Thought Streams

Wouldn’t it be great if we could just say things without worrying if it’s okay to let it out? Sometimes I feel like I need to scream just so I can be heard. That’s one way to look at this elephant. With this blog I’d like to show the elephants of my mind [...]
