Here we go again

May 21, 2019May 22, 2019 Shelly

Here we go again

Yes, that’s Elvis’ head on a stick.

How We Breathe

I would give up everything

Why don't you remember?

And then to know just what it is we saw

The Examination

Elvis’ head, again.

The Hundred Years' War

To Know

It was not his name

Practical Magic for the Modern Woman

The Wise Silence

Ready to face them again

A Gluebook Poem

May 20, 2019May 22, 2019 Shelly

Gluebook Poem

Dots of pain
My heart
my death
Perhaps
you’re spying
Wile
eyes
lighten dark and
linger near
dots of Defiance
lighten
dark my dear
line lips and
fill with laughter
choking

Gluebook Volume 6

I finished up my 5th composition notebook gluebook and started on a new one. Volume 6 is an old, recycled sketchbook containing someone else’s physics notes.

The Rights of Man 2019

There Is No Middle Ground

Perilous Journey of the Soul

Gimme Shelter and To Be One of a Kind

With apologies to Magritte. Current events are too infuriating for words, so art will have to do. I’ve been doing a lot of gluebook collage lately. Like several composition notebooks full, and just this last weekend I filled half a large sketchbook.

I may or may not be in a relationship with composition books and Post-it tabs.

Power Outage

Writing During Power Outage

Power Outage Supplies

A cold front blew in, literally. The wind caused several power outages in town, and we were one of the lucky ones. It got a little chilly in my apartment, but it wasn’t too bad. I put a hoodie on Thomas and got out some candles and my battery charger and spent the day writing.
