immensity


It hammers terms of art into a shape
So tell a story of infelicitous recurrence
deficient in affect
thriving on awkwardness
not mechanistic

writer's meditation


The briefest part of life's uncertain day,
Youth's lovely blossom, hastes to swift decay:
While love, wine, song, enhance our gayest mood
Old age creeps on, nor thought, nor understood.
Thomas Love Peacock

Could truth be in the eye of the beholder?Could truth be only skin deep? Could the poets be wrong?


Poets are a strange lotConfused about things the world takes for grantedOne says beauty is only skin deepAnother states it cannot be found in a mirror
