Monsters from the Head
Last night I had a weird dream. I will recount what I can remember then interpret the meaning. So in this dream… I am in a suburban landscape moving carefully to avoid groups of marauding Zombies and Vampires. With the large number in this sweet suburbia it was impossible to move without detection and so IContinue reading “Monsters from the Head”

Svetlana
When first I came to Kazakhstan, I never dreamt of Lana Scan. Or how on Earth it could ever be That I would see myself in effigy. Backstabbing cronies telling lies I want to stab them in the eyes, And ride roughshod upon their heads As I set fire to their feather beds. Continue reading “Svetlana”

Happy feckin birthday to me
If other people do not understand our behavior—so what? Their request that we must only do what they understand is an attempt to dictate to us. If this is being “asocial” or “irrational” in their eyes, so be it. Mostly they resent our freedom and our courage to be ourselves.

Rumi – nating
She walked away, the never that would not be. Disappeared into the amorphous cloud of humanity on Sultanahmet. Rumi found it hilarious.
Symbolic Bollocks
I flew back to Kazakhstan at Easter, bringing with me an Aloe Vera plant. I grew this one and lots of others from one original I had ten years ago.
