“From the flyer: “Their intent is to target street artists and vendors as a means of regulating and controlling the community’s use of public space, for the benefit of expensive galleries, fancy restaurants and developers. The effect is to better provide the capital-owning business elite with a controlled and sterilized neighborhood full of passive armies of docile workers and obedient shoppers. Their ambition is to redraw urban geography according to profit motives, and convert public and social life into the plaything of the private interests. This amounts to an attempt to rob us of every free and spontaneous aspect of our communities and our lives, and replace each of them with no alternative but submission and the compulsion to consume.”” / / ''The Cold War isn't thawing; it is burning with a deadly heat. Communism isn't sleeping; it is, as always, plotting, scheming, working, fighting.'' / / -Richard Milhous Nixon
Why’d ya open up two? she asked. Two what? Bottles of wine, she said. I didn’t think you’d like what I was drinking. Lifting my glass she said, It’s bitter. After a while she asked You want the rest of mine? Then left her drink and opened a book Watching TV At the same time. Before she went to bed she called Are you just going to sit there getting drunk And staring at that candle? Later on that night She woke up crying And I had a dream about Christ Nailed to a rocking chair grandfather’s clock. source:http://www.nostroviatowriting.com/skinning-honesty.html

**** the sun **** the clover **** the grass **** the blue skies **** the fluffy clouds **** the trees **** my shadow **** this pen **** the prairie grasses **** the oxygen **** the fungus eating that tree **** the singing birds **** the humid air **** the peaceful afternoon **** that ever present drone **** the space between two objects **** the white butterfly flying randomly **** the birds mating **** my finger prints **** my fingernails **** consciousness behind my eyelids **** the wine in my eyes **** bees **** ants **** flowers **** the humid afternoon breeze **** the sign that says private property keep out **** the mating calls **** the chirping birds **** good health **** bad breath **** instant gratification **** **** **** black/white spotted cats **** the tree shadows **** the swaying grasses **** the yellow garden hose **** the chaquita banana box **** getting lucky **** guys walking their bulldogs **** the thin grasses **** the sun on my back and neck **** the indoors **** the outdoors
