You're welcome, mingo. I like the individual artlogs or artblogs or whatever these are because you can make your indentations on the page and folks can forage through or not and it's a win win. I can understand the wanting to trim the limbs etc. but it's a shame when you watch the whole forest go down. Well, as you say, make room for new growth and begin again. Now that I'm back around from time to time I'll be snuffling my way through the woods so careful with that axe.

I love the picture you made for Nazz...Snazzy!

Thanks, M. You walk here anytime you feel like it. My axe has been retired.

I'm mad as dead people
in a bell I hear
with a pill of bottles
a snakehead what doing
what he supposed to be doing
what being himself & no other what
inside & outside separated by 1 thin wall
inside : 59.4 degrees
outside : 10.4 degrees
the bunker protects. . .
(o sweet bunker)
mama says "Frankly, my dear, we have
a mission from God"
cause there's the smell of stinking paw badges
on the towns in all the world -
But mama is a bigger boat in Kansas
and I ain't goin' out there monkey yes or monkey no
'cuz there's no place like napalm when
a pretty mouth places the luck as good
so punk my pajamas three times together
& shove my pretty to the blue
walk a dream it's a nice day for it
alright, Mr. DeMille....

...I'm ready for my close-up
and smack dab in the middle of the painted face
of righteousness, the eye-lash batting Queen
batted 1000
as the crowd roared
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS, SWEETHEART
WE'VE SEEN ENOUGH
and she left the stage
crying

(hey, man, I'm glad you retired the axe and instead took to
the stage...exit stage left, Snagglepuss you dawg you!)

Your Artlog welcomes the wandering eyes and reader participaction...I love that, thanks for the conversation.

Paraded or paranoid you'll never find me in Denver or stretched out in Kansas or technically virile sidewalking a broadcast while spitting fairy tales towards the North Pole. Structure is inherent so I don't never mess with it. Ever.

I don't shave my music
I don't Harlem or handsome my goof
I go for the straight drape
and if my dogs are in harness
don't pet them or feed them
for they are howling deep lunged dreamers
and on the haul

The bastard sits here at my keyboard & does things like want to say someone is a rose telephone pole in a field of snow. Go. The fish watches him. No Jim! The temperature is told by glass balloons we are proceeding under the auspices of the word "homolinguistic" - tell me what it means & I'll begin tracking it, In other words the attempt will be made to cross eternity in a single brushstroke. A driveby exploding brain makes little noise that don't go far on Mars. Under orders is as treelike as it gets. Genocide is a tree. Where will it point next? Possibly the mail carrier on a rural route. Remember the girl who said, "Don't look at me in that picture! I'm a whale." (?) Ah, whale love! It wasn't altogether shiny but otherwise we were minks & there we were waving our pinkies at each other most days with or without a shower. We had no call to be that way but our job required the making of the map as accurately as possible. It was strictly a volunteer effort. We never got paid. The word forward & the word future mean different things & just because you sometimes see them walking hand in hand the conclusion is not that they are headed for the same place. That's like thinking that because you dominate a body you dominate a soul. Now, back to the someone who is a rose telephone pole in a field of snow. Such things do exist & the fish is still watching.

All I got to say now,
this moment is powerful,
so exquisitely painful.
Watching the storms.
How did I get this place?
To walk winter thru its cold.
All I got to say now, is
love makes the world go.
Heartache transforms.
All I got to say
is thanks.

Timely.

This time I spent,
I was grateful for it, no doubt,
even if it meant I had to escape
from it, from time, from time to time.
If I had never tried to escape time,
it would be asking a lot of questions.
I should have tried by now.
I'm sure of it.

I've been stormed by all the caughts too. I've read that no one will carry any memory of this place to the other side of death. I think that will be a very great mercy. Until that moment we must remember things. It's remarkable that we can remember a former moment at the same time we are experiencing the present one. I don't think that can be called multi-tasking. I think that's what we are. Your welcome, Nazz.

Anyone need a spare "ing" ending? I've got one if ya need it. Came from an earlier post this morning. I was rereading the thing & realized I had an "ing" where it didn't belong so I edited it and now it's just sitting here in my hand and I don't know what to do with it. It's low maintenance but I've a whole locker full of this kind of thing & I really don't have the room for it. If no one wants it I think I'll just turn it loose. Let it go back to the wild. Bon voyage.

I ran across the word "homolinguistic" yesterday. Just like that out of the blue. I was so surprised my hand went automatically to my pistola. It was an anxious moment.

Saw my first chipmunk of the season two days ago. Heard a pilated woodpecker this morning. I want so bad to swat a mosquito. Please Mr. Mosquito, come back soon & take a stab at my blood so I can flatten you.

Sometimes I use my teeth as drums by clicking my fingernails against them. You can get a real rhythm going that way. You ever do that? Sometimes I just bang on my head. I've seen other people do that too.

Oo be do be do. Ships at sea. The lantern light. Lighthouse. Out on the water. Things look different out on the water. Like so many things you can speak of this but you can't explain it.

Look, Mouse! I'm banging banging banging them keys Tap tap tap bang! Bang! BANG!! BANGBANGBANG!!!!!!!!!! (gunsmoke rising on the air)

Hey Jack, what do you mean you want to write but just don't want any replies? I saw that. A couple of weeks ago - you had some posts locked - I wern't pissed, I just thought, "What the???? I'm glad you explained it. (slowly takes hand off gun) Ya know, now that you've mentioned it, I've felt that way myself.

POW!
