I saw a man, he was sitting down looking out into the expanse of space, as I surveyed his glance I had the distinct feeling that I was glimpsing briefly into a whirling montage of images that make up the universe. In this moment, I knew that everything in my life had led me to this one point, all my choices, my failures, my victories, they drew me ( Read more... )

I have fallen into for a bit of subterfuge; I believe that an acquaintance or two have been conspiring to draw me into a certain political situation at work. I never could have imagined when I was in middle school that one day I would grow up and adults would continue to gossip, cheat, lie, and castigate.

It was both my pleasure and privilege to be part of the elementary music showcase (where students from all over the county come together to perform in select ensembles); I helped run the boy choir, although I had students ( Read more... )

However, the Iraq situation is exacerbating an already tarnished view that the world has of the American government as a unilateral nation, which ( Read more... )

If you have never had the distinctive pleasure of listening to Shatner's seminal Album: The Transformed Man, crawl don't run to your nearest place of mp3 distribution and listen to these golden songs. His covers of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and Mr. Tambourine Man alone are worth the effort. It is pure gold; his voice is a magical device that ( Read more... )

I still don't know what I am doing, I ask only to know nothing. It gathers me inside itself and keeps me warm until it smothers me. Begin again with something that is below the mark of gathering. I captured her for a time and then with bold brash wings she flew from me before I even said my name, or did I singe her wings ( Read more... )
