Unease

I want my life to be poetic, poignant and easy. I also want to fly Orion's Belt like a kite on a very long piece of string.

Here in Santa Barbara, the succulents are generating giant white stocks that are bigger than the entire plant. They genuflect gracefully and remind me inevitably of large white phalli. What if humans could project out appendages bigger than their bodies? Blahhhh. Sorry I asked that.

Disturbing thought for the day number two: have you ever noticed how a single grain of white rice looks a lot like a larva? Needless to say, I have.
