smoke

The length of day requires isolation.
Shivering in my cold, leaving oxygen particles on my invisible window/mirror.
Personal inventory,
And glazed eyes.
A few etchings are made in my mental steno pad.
Tears creep as I recall earlier sagas,
And love lingers in its usual wayside longing.
Privacy?
My nails are dirty and the wind is crackly
Whispering chastisement for my habit.
Time chisels-clearing away for the new.
Change.
My fingertips burn waiting for my lips to purge this moment’s fire.
Heavy lidded, romantic lashes.
I’m sleepy.
Okay.
I ash and exit my temporary retreat.

OMNI-JAVA in Greenpoint

Friday evening's inaugural reading for theOMNIVOROUSgroup was a glowing success and a sincere representation of the collective's potential. Iandry presented his Popcan, as a "community art" piece, allowing us all to paint and contribute.

The evening was hosted by yours truly, including Richard Morales, Sierra Marcks, Caroline V. McGraw, and Adam Chandler.
Poetry and essays were presented.

The space was perfect and the audience was receptive and eager. It was a beautiful evening and truly the beginning of something special. Check back for upcoming info on the next OMNIVOROUS reading!
