lolz

it worries me

that people have seen thousands of cat pictures and see dozens more every day.

and that i can put hours of effort strategically placing and planning a few hundred words in a way that i hope barely exists, if at all.

Why is it easier to get views on a dumb cat picture that took 6 seconds and a teaspoon of luck, than on one piece of hours-planned, attempted - even if failed - art?

 It makes me sad, friends.

shiver - a summer in colorado.


Another one of those dark, bluesky days
in the only heaven i know.
 every sunset this summer has mirrored
the flaming mountain forests.


  this morning the sun rose, dripped with blood
thick with iron, steel
and saltwater.
