Blowing Dust

My dreams
lately
have been
sexual,
deliciously &
sensually sexual.


You may
think that
all sex
is sensual,
but that’s
not true.


Ask the
housewife
standing at
the kitchen
sink long
after the
breakfast dishes
are done,
staring out
the window
at the
dust blowing
in the
alley.

paring the american dream down to size

Paring the American Dream 

What we
used to
see as
prosperity
was really
excess &
wantonness
which is
slowly
forcing us
toward
frugality
which we
see as
hardship &
deprivation.

 

We’re a
great source
of amusement
to people
around
the globe
living on
one cup
of rice
a day.

Getting to Know Me

I’m a
hard person

Ask anyone

knows me.
