Do I see straight lines the same way you do?
Is my green as green as yours?
The full moon imagined in your head is the same imagined in my head?
Absolutely not. Feelings are felt differently in different people.

I am currently working on a contribution which stems from a recent experience. I think it will turn out well but it will take some time. I am alive. I will contribute. All in due time.
It will be interesting to see what kind of art our time period will be remembered for leaving behind. Could the Picasso of our time be an artist that uses photoshop instead of traditional paint?
The way I see it is we all can be the next Picasso's, for we are only limited by our own imaginations. The internet can be our canvas.

I’ve always been sort of troubled by the notion of ‘social networking’ websites, and as a result have never bothered to be involved in them – other than once, and that was business related.
I don’t consider space collective to be one, as it’s intention does not seem to be to be a place to ‘hook up’ and show off all of the...

When I say—
(the sun sets on a field of blue to orange-red)
it has nothing to do with—
(thin fingers of smoke rise from refugee chimneys)
(tired heart, clutching threadbare rest)
The lake is half frozen & the geese & swans can’t make up their minds.
Everything has gained a transitory aura & its tough to pin down exactly which habits should rise
from ancient genetic patterns until the beard-frost leaves the surface.
Their feet are leathery—
the cold does not phase them.
Drums started the boys west to this field from Washington.
War to them was a three-month enlistment,
a bright uniform & a chance to carry a musket.
Senators, Congressmen, their wives & children,
packed baskets with lunches & followed to watch the show.
Almost a century & a half has passed.
Somehow my visit seems forced,...
I
most are kids
can’t grow a mustache
where they’re going, bullets won’t care
jumpy ghosts who know nothing about conflict
except what a fist feels like after a school dance argument
ready to be heroes
boots, BDUs & guns
leaving gym bleachers like a slow parade
watch the families say good-bye with tearful
fuck yous &...
hello everybody,
it looks great..

My boy friend of 16 years is showing signs of ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease. We are just beside ourselves with worry. This was slow to progress and it may be in combination with Nueropathy or not. The reason it is not Nueropathy is because it is more a lack of motor skills that is getting worse. For instance, I am asked to cut his dinner meat or...
Sobre todas as coisas e sobre tudo no mundo
Um círculo começa onde terminou. Mas onde ele termina, então? Apenas transferimos o problema de um lugar indefinido pra outro lugar indefinido. Não. Se a pergunta for "Onde começa um círculo?" então está resolvido.
Tudo é referencial. Eu não sou metódico.
De qualquer forma,...
I'll start with a fractal I find fitting to this website. It is an image of infinitely many worlds.
I've always been fascinated with fractals. The chaos and complexity that can be found in just one hints at some answer to an unknown question. Relatively simple equations bring about infinite patterns and possibilities. And they look awesome...
