Lights on a Black Night

I walked the streets tonight. I can’t quite describe just how it was.  Snow on the ground and up above, on my boots and in my lashes. It was the kind of night full of subway steam and silhouettes.  There was no wind and no moon to be seen. 
The Christmas lights have been strung.  The pond now frozen [...]

Un Viale

Among the coloring and chime of champagne glasses, the thousands of twinkle lights strung above, jazz tappings, and the hum of people buzzing and bumbling ’round, swaying in and out of periphery, someone asked me what I wanted, in the midst of it all.
“If you could be anywhere right now, where would you be?”
 It gave my heart [...]

Speed of Sound

 
It’s amazing what music can do to you, for you. It’s the “Speed of Sound” by Coldplay.
It sounds exactly like what waves look like underneath your ferry ride. It’s almost mechanical, churning over and over again. Almost like it has a mind, one that will never rest, exhausted by its inevitable ability to do [...]

Almost Blue

It’s raining in harmonics tonight.
Somethin’ just  aint right
Feelin’ like Costello’s ‘Almost Blue’
Somethin’ tells me it’s ’cause of you
Strange, the change from major to minor
How words fall from poetry to prose
Almost blue, without you here
It’s ’cause I’m gettin near
I’ve gone miles far and in between
Though, I’ve never been down this street
“Say what this means to me
I’ll [...]

Kissing Queens

This morning while doing the usual crossword puzzle and orange juice, I was notified to find that a little girl I had once babysat had “added” me on facebook- perhaps you have heard of the site? Don’t worry, nobody has.
What was puzzling to me was, aside from her red hair, she would have been merely [...]

Call Me Crazy?

“Clinging to the rules of the outdated past” is what the playbill read. This should have been my first indication that I was in fact, in the wrong place. I attended my university’s theater production of “Man & Beast”, a play that explored society and its perceptions of what a relationship should be,  involving sexuality [...]
