It's been a while since I've been able to update this site. 17 credits has been making me a little crazy. I took these pics from MT Sentinel a few weeks back. Hopefully I'll have some more essays and poetry coming up in the next couple weeks. BTW - thanks a ton JMD for the props and the brief link on your blog. When I get a little more time I'll cruse your blog some more. I've barely had time for my blog.
But here's a Single's Appreciation (Valentine's) Day sonnet, DeTrav style, just for shits and giggles. I'm still revising but.. Well, you'll get the idea. Maybe. (p.s. You know, if you abbreviate Valentine's Day you get VD. Just thought you should know.)
Promise of a Heart
(Shaking Hands with Shakespeare)
A lifting veil concluded with a kiss
The palms are spooning near sunset and sand
Pinky swear the promise of eternal bliss
Put the condom wrapper on the nightstand
The cream-colored sheets look white in the dark
And lips taste like salty sugar
An operatic voice sings in wild barks
The curtains lift to broken wine stemware
The film jumps it’s teeth and melts away
Sucking chest wound grazes on the void
Teasing rap on the tin man’s body
He doesn’t mind, he’s frozen and bored
The O’s in Hollywood ooze green lies
For what is love after you have died
