Since I can't send all of you a warm quilt in this early Arctic storm,  I will post a diary on quilts for you to enjoy.  Many quilts patterns have names rooted in political events.

Early in the morning
It was early on a Friday morning
It was 99 degrees
When two men
All the way from South Africa
Mandella
DeClerk
Congratulations South Africa
At last
You arranged democratic elections
Long way
Long way
Long walk to freedom

Some of the vegetables from this week. 

This week I went picking tomatoes at the CSA farm. The members were invited to you pick sun gold tomatoes. They are little yellow cherry tomatoes with a very sweet flavor. I have 3 plants of my own that I have had growing in pots. Mine wasn't as sweet as the ones from the farm. Sun gold is indeterminate and grows into a tall vine and the rows at the farm was very tall. I could hardly reach the top so I mostly picked from the bottom and middle. I picked until my shopping tote got heavy.

Oh it's Thursday; just the perfect way to keep Wednesday from colliding with Friday...

It was not my loss, he's the one who got killed!...

November 8^th, 2013

As I left my West Village rental on Friday morning a shirtless man wearing a green mask with a beak, ass-liberating chaps and furry green boots confronted me.  “I’m Michael Alig,” he said, “And I am here to party.  Come on, I’ll take you to the Limelight.”

“It’s 8 a.m.,” I said.  “The Limelight isn’t open.”

Since Myspace (the prior repository of my poetry, kept separate from my political stuff thereby) has gone all ferkacht, before I forget them I am porting my posts from there to here.

THIS I BELIEVE

I believe in suppressing inflammation, any time and any place it might arise in the body.
