I need a job. Better yet, work. I don’t need money. Divine Providence (Mother Earth) has led me to a remarkably magical retirement. No savings, just Social Security, and a woman … I didn’t know existed. Still, I’ve now lasted eleven sevens of years, and in looking back I’ve had a curious education. The first …

I die more everyday …
I die more everyday. I used to think life was about living, but in some sense it is also about dying. We tend to avoid pain, and to acknowledge the little murders that occur each day is not an experience of pleasure. Yes, murders. Mostly it happens when I watch News. This sense of death …
this thanksgiving I am grateful for the trump event
For a lot of people the idea of “history” being Art might be a difficult notion to grasp. All the same, an ancient Greek playwright would admire the handiwork of the Gods&Goddesses in this “trump event”. If anything, the Gods&Goddesses are story tellers.
