Friday Foto: John Kenn

John Kenn's blog can be found here.

A busy dad who finds time to make art on post-it notes. Love it.
Happy Friday!

And a special shoutout to my buddy Val. Have a sweet birthday this weekend!

Mondoetry: Fringes

I was always on the outside
For you, not strong enough
Maybe this explains the ways
I want to be so tough

Endless summer
Feeling number
I close my eyes and disappear
So you won't see me there

The tears are on the inside
more and more these days
Maybe now with growing up
I will transcend this maze

Endless summer
Falling under
You can't depend on me to be
Your savior in the thunder

You can't depend on me to be
Your savior in the thunder

Oh, the Snows that you'll see...

So we got hit by some snow/ice/sleet/whathaveyou this past weekend and the city is still shut down because, well...

A) This is what we need.


B) And this is what we have.


Neither of these photos are mine. But I took a couple photos outside and will get something up when I have the chance to upload to my compy :)

New Year's Resolutions

1. Graduate. !!!!
Many corollaries to this.

2. Lead outdoor 5.11s
2.a. Corollary: Climb a lot.

3. Travel. A Lot.
3.a. Corollary: Renew Passport.

Happy 2011! Only one more year until... Dun DUn DUNNNNNNN

Zombies! or worse!

And since I probably won't be posting anything this Friday because I'll either be doing one of the corollaries to #1, or something in the vein of 2.a., the Friday Foto is H3R3!!!


Happy New Year :D

Mondoetry: This Body

if i didn't have this body
would you still have talked to me
and poured out your life story
effortlessly

if i didn't have this body
would you still have tried as hard
to get into my life

would you still have said those things
about wanting me to be your wife

if i didn't have this body
would you still misinterpret my big heart
as an open invitation
to take advantage of

if i didn't have this body
would you still make all these offers
open doors
and lay down carpet
just for the time that i would walk it?

if i didn't have this body
would my actions still represent
a seeming desperate hot mess
or someone who just wants to be your friend

if i didn't have this body
would you still hold me at arm's length
because you think a beautiful woman
is not to be trusted?

if i didn't have this body
would you still
see

me


?

HmmmMMmmmm...there is so much more of his work out there, I might have to do a second themed photo post.

Happy Friday and have a lovely weekend!
I get to go back up north next week, so i'm excited to see my family but maybe not so much for the cold...but kind of excited to see some snow again. :) x

Tuesday's Child

i saw white drifts
dance across the street
in your hair in your face
it cut knife deep

i heard birds sing
out of thin air
in my head in this space
they were everywhere

i felt warm orange
drift beneath the sky
above the clouds beneath my feet
but no answers to my cry

tuesday
to tuesday

but i think i have to try
