a fine frenzy

i have a collected book of poems ~ a fine frenzy ... i bought at a library book sale when i lived in las vegas i believe... i have been trying to remember a poem for about a year now... and finally i found the poem today... i opened the book to the inside cover and found 3 of my previous addresses inside. it seems, based on the timeline... that i take this particular poetry book out every 5 years or so... i've also found, i haven't changed that much, i have bent the pages of all my favorite poems... and reading them again tonight... they still grab me. there's also the lyrics to the song old friend by paul simon on a sheet of paper inside... that my friend andy gave to me when i moved away about 12 years ago now...  here's one i just flipped to:


my own epitaph by john gay
"life is a jest; and all things show it. i thought so once; but now i know it"

tango til their sore... by tom waits... that's my epitaph

oh, and about art... i surveyed the newest location seoul salon in st. paul on snelling. i am hanging everything next week. a bright little salon... 

i have an idea for a new series of drawings... that i am really excited about... i have decided to spend more time playing with line art and watercolors over the summer... i even put my crayons and coloring books on the top (as opposed to the bottom) shelf in prep for extra playtime.... this summer for me, despite my fairly hefty show schedule... is devoted to spending more time playing... i have really been pushing myself to do as many shows as possible... mostly, because i am crazy... but also because i want to see just how far i can push it... and i have realized recently... that it's time to go back to the beginning... pencils, crayons... fingerpaint... fun fun fun...
