...Overlook:
No longer viewer
altering. A peek at
steps. Idlers in the air.
.
Large portraits—
one of some prince,
drink it nonstop.

"What writer does when she intends:"

Craft company (a serene expression).
A baby grand sits in one take
over this ancient adolescent.
Myth, the fanboys who
every morning will.
.
Book title: (What) Writer does
when she / intends to write.
Often revealing, imagination.
(Never open without protest?)
Ploys must vanish.
.
Glowed red, wish.
Soft lighting, speakeasy meticulous
flirtatious manner.

I'm so lucky, I was a spotlight collagist for "Twin Cities Collage Collective' (on IG) this weekend. I'll include my blurb-terview I supplied in the thread!

Young Friend:

Sitting across from
lovely cheekbones,
playthings. Imitations
of ‘historicism.’
.
“Composed for Dodgson’s young—”
cuddled up to the dark.
“—friend.”
Porcelain had become
far cheaper.
.
Prelude to the creative.
New England daughters
bobbed up and
they would be happy.
“Do have their uses.”
.
Of a dance.
Desire to get away from his-
torical. Tangled up,
they’re saying
between the lines.
Be thrilled / to discover. . .

Attempt to connect via
feather bed. Left me
feeling / alone.
“Properly?” I think
lit chaos. Paper conjured
literature
of (t)his elegant mind.
.
Catalyst it is, “thy lip.”
Esoteric ingredients,
cheek. Profoundly shaken
—day she saw had
uncomfortable, “a timetable?”
.
(But) “he had fun, too.”
Also sells world’s
most comforting
affectation.
.
Rational enough
in love, or limited views
of letters. He was perfectly
exempt from the old
palace of airs.

. . .In vain / pleated.
“I’m an adventurous eater.”
Still all perish,
so city stores them
in that situation;
inflated ego.
.
Against the gold leaf,
such an amiable “b.”
Gratitude for his rescue.
Painting of dancing
rabbits. A spooky floating.
.
Something reminiscent,
have the same root
in birds, silver leaf.
“Door I had given her.”

She did not speculate
about the end.
In the fall—
a step or two
so sweetly
—they took the pumpkins.
.
Solemn, with a gravity beyond.
Bustled to parade
other craft. / Contentment
worlds in one place.
.
Happiness of being
in love / choose the year’s
“always been.”

...People had to rely on artists
for memory of mistake,
inappropriate wanted.

Help bring a great deal

Some cosmic-dots, sprinkles for your timeline. It's snowing here in greater Boston. How is everyone today? This hippy is sending you light w my coffee cup the size of my head.

Ghost-friend in india ink, watercolors, Posca paint pen, and a 'monster cereal bowl' from last Oct's "Creeptober Club" (on Insta) prompts.

The skeleton structure:
(Con)-centrated on a single
phrase in a piece.
.
How complicated
total transparency
can be.
.
Hunted alike, also wage,
"and I like to talk about
feminine things."
.
Because I'm such
spiny legs. Folding box/harp,
it's more pleasurable to sing.

An adorable-type
the skeleton structure
I pick in writing.

(National Poetry Writing Month, NaPo 2020)

21. A fantasy print
construction-paper
horribly pretending
‘canonical academism.’
Bats and witches
looked of young women.
.
Says, “I skip the info.”
Wears it with a doll
hat. Felt awkward
‘pro getting ahead.’
Art, two glazes of blue
-lished by the past.
.
“Wasn’t one of my students.”
She surrendered;
she accepted the situation,
results from aging
darkly awake...
