Writing with Depression
I’ve been meaning to write a post to talk openly about working with Bipolar II, PTSD, and chronic insomnia …and how that related to creative endeavors.
Colin Roswell has opened up the floor over on his blog to this very discussion. I’m not sure if his personal invite was a complement or an insult [...]
Snow.
I can haz refund nao?
Mirrored from I see neutronjockies….
Marionettes all dance on parade,
trade the angel wing for nylon string,
at the Puppet Master’s masquerade.
A devil’s charade twice cloaked in shade,
Dear Julius,
Julius Cœsar, Rome doth burn. Show no fear. The slow laissez-faire fires of yesteryear will still heat the whorish coffers to the mourn. The gold coins of many kings shall yield to the melt, e pluribus unum. On the morrow, the Alchemist will gather [...]

The Farrier’s Daughter

La Carta de un Soldado
Mi hija,
Estoy escribiendo esta carta
