Saeed Jones - A Stranger

I wonder if my dead mother still thinks of me.
I know I don’t know her new name. I don’t know

her, not now. I don’t know if “her” is the word
burning in a stranger’s mind when he sees my dead

mother walking down the street in her bright black
dress. I wonder if he inhales the cigarette smoke

that will eventually kill him and thinks “I wish I knew

Jameson Fitzpatrick - Frantic Efforts to Avoid Abandonment, Real or Imagined

Once I wove flowers into his bicycle spokes.

I wrote PLEASE on the wall in large letters.

I texted twice more after it was clear he didn’t want to sleep with me again.

Mats Gustafson

Mats Gustafson (Swedish, b. 1951) began his career as an illustrator in the late 1970s, a time when editorial illustration was eclipsed by photography, and watercolor as a conceptual medium had barely been explored. A graduate of Dramatiska Institutet (University College of Film, Radio, Television and Theatre) in Stockholm, he first applied his graphic sensibility to the art of stage design.

Dawn Chorus

As 2020 comes to a close, Jon Hopkins has shared a new piano cover of “Dawn Chorus” by Thom Yorke, taken from Yorke’s recent album, Anima. Recorded in one take on the upright he has had since childhood, Hopkins’ version of “Dawn Chorus” is a beautifully melancholic reinvention of the original.
