Breathe together from every garden
How we would watch the sky
I wandered drunk in need of a cigarette 
But conscious of the repulsive power of want
Crushed wanting from happening
I could smell the moon light
Drooling full forest fluff 
They push through the shadows

Well, I initially had written one between this and the last that I thought I had taken a picture of before scrambling, but I didn’t. Alas, the last one is lost but it lives on in this one.

The Spanish Navy said Wednesday it is sending the warship Furor to protect the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla after activists said drones had attacked their boats near Greece. This comes after Italy earlier committed to sending navy vessels to escort the flotilla.

Here men be
Drunk in power
Beauty doesn’t want 
& smoke is lazy

A languid spirit listening
Like a howl at the moon

Were humanity heaved to
Her breath(e) could go fast
And still stop me 
From wanting the gardens freedom

Here men be Drunk in power Beauty doesn’t want & smoke is lazy A languid spirit listening Like a howl at the moon Were humanity heaved to Her breath(e) could go fast And still stop me From wanting the gardens freedom

Magnetic poem #2

Each day, I start the new one with the end of the last one.

Scream from every shadow
From an emotion less repulsive 
Realing crazy urges 
Like a thousand 
delirious forests 
I whisper hip
Freedoms through
TV storms
Trudge away swim from he
Would you taste the sea

Here men be 
Drunk in power

Scream from every shadow From an emotion less repulsive Realing crazy urges Like a thousand delirious forests I whisper hip Freedoms through TV storms Trudge away swim from he Would you taste the sea Here men be Drunk in power

Morning magnetic poetry!

Album of the Day - the Japanese release Paradox by Steps (1981). Considered by some as one of the group’s best recorded moments, this live album was recorded at Seventh Avenue South and features seven lengthy cuts, including an extended alternate take of β€œThe Aleph.” #Jazz #hifi #vinyl #audiophile

currently working on some photos and listening to a music libary i've been curating from my cds in vlc media player. something about this brings me back to the days before IG and "doom scrolling" and it feels really good.

Feels good to be back in a darkroom. I've developed a lot of film over the past few years, and it feels good to get it off of a screen.

Staying: Leaving Records Aid to Artists Impacted by the Los Angeles Wildfires, by Various Aritsts 98 track album

It’s rare that a multi-artist compilation works as well from front to back as this one does, which is extra impressive because it’s got 98 tracks! And proceeds go to folks here in L.A. who really need it, so I strongly encourage you to purchase. staying.bandcamp.com/album/stayin...
