word on the street

June 26, 2006
dace has been poetry duct taped to my door,
peanut butter and jelly staples,
bacon in my kitchen,
long walks,
poetry and music,
deep disclosure,
comfort and discomfort,
and an extra set of eyes on the world.
dace has paid closer attention to me than i have to myself at times.

in this long process of unwinding, deciphering, uncovering, creating, exploring, and healing
that we seem to have both chosen in our lives,
dace is my traversing companion.

about me
I've been told I have the skiddish gaurd that animals get when they've been kicked. I've been told I'm complex and have gentle eyes. I've been told my eyes have a fire in them. I've been called a Life Hacker. I've been called a Pillar Of Tranquility by people who don't know me, and a pyramid of angst by people that do. I've been told that I'm an easy person to like, and a difficult person to know. I get overwhelmed easily. I don't usually like what the other children like. I find in-betweeness to be illusive and uncomfortable. I have trouble sleeping at nite. I enjoy psychotherapy and applesauce and Joseph Campbell and the shape of trees.

Turn ons include sensible footware and well crafted questions. Lethargic dogs and cats with thumbs.

I don't make promise (anymore). It's probably best not to expect too much.

I know there are aspects of myself I don't know how to deal with and so I squelch them -- often times so automatically that I'm unawareness that these aspects are even there to be squelched. Some of my most significant self-realizations have come in becoming aware of my own ignorance, and in coming to know there are parts of myself that I am blind to, by naivety or by design. And that doesn't mean that other people can't see these things in me. It's like when a little kid closes their eyes an... read more

"The outer world changes with historical times. The inner world is the world of anthropos. It's the world constant to the human race. And so you have, throughout the mythological systems, a constant. You always have the sense of recognizing something. What you're recognizing is your own inward life, and at the same time, the inflection through history.

And the problem with making the inner meet the outer of today is of course the function of he artist."

The pipes are my ego as I have constructed it. It is the part of me with which I identify. These are the values I embrace. The pipes are that which makes sense to me, and there is safety in clinging to them.

Below are my shadows. These are aspects and potential aspects of myself which I decidedly do not embrace -- neither in myself nor in others -- but are nonetheless present, weather I allow myself to see them or not.

When I cling too tightly to the pipes and try only to keep the shado... read more

Precious few...

The snow fell in force today and laid a obstical-ridden course for a brutal double shift as a pizza (calzone) delivery driver. I think this is actually the first time I've ever driven in snow. It think the best part was seeing a car burst into flames (not mine). It was awesome. I mean, like, big flames. And it was coming right at me. Totally surreal. Totally beautiful. I've never seen anything like that in real life.



I came home with a hefty bank of tippage and new-found appreciate for 4-wheel-drive.



And now after spending 3 hours shoveling the snow off the driveway and sidewalk, I feel totally exhausted, but kind of exhilarated.



And now I go to sleep and do it all again tomorrow.



Goodnight, Madison!

I do this thing where I resist changing because I'm afraid of violating my own image of myself and then having to explain that to myself and others.

Each question comes with own set of facts and assumptions.



When I have a question I cannot answer, there's often a more fundimental one that I'm not asking. One such for each fact or assumuption that I'm not questioning. And the answers to that, if I can get them, makes the original question's answer obvious (or moot).



It's harder than it sounds though. Most things are.
