Still figuring things out.
Cornfed and Confused: Thoughts from a Queer Southerner.
a journal of creative endeavors, acknowledgements, and awakenings
Surviving and savoring parenthood one day at a time
the purpose of reality
A look at the looks
of organic poems, multifarious prose, rambunctious ramblings, and queer dreams
personal reflections, meditations, and dreams
a sometimes intrepid exploration of a virtual world
mostly poetry, partly peculiar.

The Personal is Empirical
Lucidly in shadows. Poetry from a hand that writes misty.
I was starting to prep for my grade 12 second semester exams, when news of the Tianannen Square crackdown reached Canada. For me, Patrick Brown, of the CBC, will always be the narrative voice, of this Chinese demand for democracy. Even now, I hear him, describing the lone protester, standing before the tank and stopping it.
Welcome back, Lona, have missed you, not posting your thoughts and poetry.

Thank you Therisa, still working my way back. The courage of these people needs to be honored. Children in China don’t know of it, and even here, the first three people who I mentioned it to (each under 40), had not been aware of it. We can’t let the memory be erased, democracy dies in silence.

Nice to meet you … this was an atrocity but only mild by the communist parties regular standards!

True Kate. Tiananmen has the dubious advantage of having been fairly vividly documented vs some of the other atrocities. I am glad to meet you also.
