Dragon’s Desire

Coinage around my room
Like I’m a dragon
Who swallows diamonds

Absent-mindedly
Leaving change
Around the place

I need the best
Rarest, hardest
Minerals to keep

To armor soft spots
And to keep piling
As a treasure den

Altering states
From weak to strong
As I consume more

Trinkets and valuables
In order to lure
My armored prey

I love these reflections. It doesn’t happen often, because here it’s either totally cloudy or totally not. Never happens like this.

Radiolaria

What you must have felt
As we connected by plasma

What miasma would rise
From frictious heat
By the two of us
And our heartbeats

It was three
Words
You said to
Me

That made cyanide
Drip between us
Connect
Us

What lethal seed
Of poison shared
Now lingers as
Ideas in the air

What you must have felt
Underneath me
As we connected by plasma
Heated by our bodies

A warm comfort of
Life and death
Avoided by dethorning
Metallic roses

A sea of radiolaria
Binding us
Momentarily, but
In symbol: always

Mayday Gallery

This is a collection of all the photos I took out at Mayday in Seattle. We came upon a collection of Alt-Righters, Eco-Fems, Communists, Anarchists, and all manner of disagreeing people. This is some of the day.

[image error]This was pretty much the theme of the day. [image error]And so was this one. [image error]This framing was some of the strangest I’ve ever seen, [image error]Anticapitalism at its finest. [image error]On the hunt for Joseph Seed. [image error]‘Captain Neutral’, and some guy wearing an obnoxiously orange hoodie in the background. [image error]I don’t know about...

Mayday 2018 Full Cut

A lot of people got together on May 1st, 2018, in Seattle and did a whole lot of disagreeing. And it made for a lovely photography convention.

Terror Suit

We introduce O2
Through tubes
Fed by two
Canisters

To cut down on
Panic-induced
Breathing patterns
Such as hyperventilating

In the presence of
Something that illicits
Fear, we’ve made it so
Anxiety is a non-issue

This contains stress
As well as the air
Conditioning system
We’ve fitted to hotspots

After testing and distressing
We’ve fitted coolant tanks
To target the legs, chest,
And head when the wearer sweats

This in effect makes
Each environment
As comfortable
As can be

That’s not even to d...
