Essay

cigpoem I smoke But that is bad for my health. But I love And that is bad for my heart. And love makes me smoke, And smoke helps me think And make circles in the air. I breathe An easy thing And breath makes a person hoard life But so it makes a yellowed-eyed Beast on the savannah Swell its lungs As it looks into infinity. I speak But that gets me into trouble, But without speech I could not get out of it. And a mouth makes me speak And weave dreams That are lies Upon the heart Beating beneath me. I...

Call of the Wild

FullSizeRender

They expect us to love with our brains

Because we are not animals;

They expect us to paint the intricate sunshine,

Not hunt with our nostrils.

Because we have faces, not snouts,

Flat with shrunken jaws.

Because we have nails, not claws;

And hands and feet, not paws.

But the brain is the primate, it is the animal,

Not always savage, often tender;

The heart is a muscle, not a demigod.

We shed like a snake, our skin is leather.

The brain is flesh, not a ghost.

It is nerves and nerve e...

Excerpt from “For the Empire’s Throne.”

At the time that Eyforer Stario was married, the typical tax charged to small merchants in the squares was one copper a day, and ten tin coins at the start of each day to receive a day permit. It was expensive to do business, and a salesman could not just sell anywhere. There were allocated areas for such activity. In the evening, the salesman would line up before the Mercantile Tax Collection Office where he would pay his tax and receive a parchment indicating his solvency. Anyone who didn’t...

Who wants to check out my old dongle?

If you said yes to the question, you ought to be ashamed of yourself. It is regretful that you wouldn’t prefer something more sophisticated. But you ask, “what’s better than my old dongle? What’s there to upgrade? I just put this baby in and the fireworks begin! Zap! My computer loves it. I get internet as soon as I push the stick into her hardware!” Sure, as a primitive human being, you might like this flexibility of just going in for the kill. Praise to that, but if you want to expand your...
