For the past little while I've been reading my way through True Harvest: Readings from Henry David Thoreau. Given the quality of the writing I often find here—both verse and prose—I thought I'd share this little bit with you.

 Well, they can't all be warm and fuzzy and bright... As always, the dark ones are works in progress, spilling out in unstructured waves. (I feel a need to defend them, somehow, but perhaps it is the rather raw nerves they expose that make it so...)

So, here you are:  A little more about me than any of you probably needed to know. (Although apparently odetteroulette already knew...)

1. I have dated members of the Yamaguchi-gumi.

TRUE. For some months I lived and worked in a certain sector of Osaka. During that interesting period,… Read full post »

1. I have dated members of the Yamaguchi-gumi.

2. I have had a smoke where Hitler stood at the podium in "Triumph of the Will".

3. I have travelled to 38 countries on four continents.

UPDATE:
I liked cartouche's twist, so I propose you replace any of the above… Read full post »

Last weekend on a short trip to Boston, I got to enjoy an advance glimpse of spring, as the season is somewhat more advanced there than it is up here north of the border.

For me spring always brings signals the start of six months full of life, colour, long days,… Read full post »

CoyoteOldStyle explored the streets of Boston on Patriots’ Day. At about the same time I was not too far away in Concord, taking a stroll around Walden Pond. Almost everyone else was at the Patriots' Day re-enactments that day. The sky was a little unreliable, but I wasn’t looking for pic… Read full post »

Still working on it, but I'm afraid it isn't getting any lighter...

I don’t usually have time to bake dessert—getting dinner made after work and before homework is usually about as much as I can manage (unlike my avatar, I have but two hands).

So, rested and relaxed at the tail end of a beautiful long weekend, I felt inspired. Doubly so,… Read full post »

returning northward
flocks of geese carrying warmth—
I think you sent them…

sun-dried white bed sheets
ironed by a steady breeze—
