Much Ado About Nothing
Here is a video about nothing:
Escaped impending doom and embraced unending heat with a little local Shakespeare over the weekend… it was a pleasant spot to watch a play and if the play got a little dull, you could watch the audience watch the play.
Melt the Sky
Full Fathom Five
I lay and I lie
in a bed of oysters
With sheets made of tide
That comes in till it goes
like the eel in my pelvis
or the crab in my nose.
The Little Ugly Man Who Lives Under The Sea
That Little Ugly Man is me
I was made out of mud and a slather of goo
I walk with a foot, but never a shoe.
I dig and I float and piss where I sleep
I shit where I breath and fuck where I eat
I’m the Little Ugly Man who lives under the sea
But don’t put on any airs, ’cause you’re just like me.
Under Foot Under Tow
Summer Reading
