you're the only tennessee

setting out in search of the trickle down. town.
could be worse.



should be coming soon. coming home.

our heart break will be televised.
votes on how much you like this commentary.
and 7 other personal opinings.



tiny desks. winning numbers.

there's a hole where my pocket used to be. and i cant find my




changes. quartered and drawn.



recovered from this secretive cinematic bravado.
the song goes on forever...

haiku&i

here comes the one...

head in lap, heart in mouth.

and that's a fact.

the last corner 'round the track.

ashen and less than holy, and in forty days


you'll have my back.




leaves of grass and arguments concerning gawd. merge with the

infinite pleasure of never knowing, always knowing.



punch out a tune instead of a face, and we're three steps forward and three steps back. a drunken waltz for a failing trust.




post cards for the downwardly mobile. one for every failed prayer.

donations will be matched if they are dated before the thaw.
