info_outline Poem: The Story of the Sun & the CityThreads
Ever have a poem grab you by the throat when you least expect it but maybe most need it? This Monday's poem did just that with me a few nights ago. Not too sure if I'm entirely grateful for the pleasure of waltzing unwittingly into a poem about 9/11, but as always I have faith in the way art moves trauma through us. Trigger warning around September 11th, 2001 content. Much love. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit
info_outline Skip To My LouThreads
Note the fancy (not fancy at all) music at front. That's a podcast thing, right? Anyway, words on worlds where a feather is more than just that. Where the song of the bird who left it is more important than the texts on my cell phone. The cell phone I once hid in a kitchen pot with a lid on top. This is a public episode.

info_outline Existential CalmnessThreads
Being an artist whose mind is constantly saturated with existential thoughts is not always comfy or calm. But something has come over me.

info_outline Monday Poem: Questioning What We WillThreads
O, what a world of unseen visions and heard silences, this insubstantial country of the mind! What ineffable essences, these touchless rememberings and unshowable reveries! And the privacy of it all! A secret theater of speechless monologue and prevenient counsel, an invisible mansion of all moods, musings, and mysteries, an infinite resort of disappointments and discoveries. A whole kingdom where each of us reigns reclusively alone, questioning what we will, commanding what we can. - Julian Jaynes This is a public episode.

info_outline Art and WarriorshipThreads
Art has always been a path to wellness for human beings. From the beginning it was inextricable with the healing path. When we redefine (or remember is a more accurate word) what healing actually is for ourselves, our very wellness can create change -- not everyone likes change.
