Totally immersed in Frank Stanford these days.

You find the bright feathers of morning
Laid out in proportion to snow and light"

end of year...
Normally, I never seem to make this sort of post, but thought I would this year. A recent illness that I've been progressing through has made me view my own work with a different shade. My journal is now a talisman. Writing – always important – has now become something along the lines of breathing ... in terms of how much I need it – the good, the bad, and the ugly. And I do seem to write a lot of Lee Van Cleef, but that’s ok. He needs words too.
