(and still insists he sees a ghost.)
We are connected in this moment:
Right now, you are picking weeds out of tomatoes
as I re-arrange my alter space
figuring the balance between ritual and flight.
In our attempts to lose beloved
success racks up with failure
till we see the other standing there.
Movement startles the doors.
I dust off my bedside table.
He thrusts his hands into the earth.

I perceive most things on a different (not deeper!) level than most other people.
Those learned in astrology upon looking at my chart would point at the Mercury/Pluto conjunction.
You can think we are talking about baskets and eggs, but I am probably talking about the entire manner in which something is done based on pattern established by my observation.
So please, *please* just hear me out and try to see where I am coming from. Just because it is different does not mean it is ri...

When I created the POC Nexus community on Livejournal.com, a popular early blogosphere, my friend, Hadiya, asked me if I was being, perhaps, a touch romantic. During this period of my own awakening consciousness, a bifurcation appeared: people of color (P.O.C.) on one side and white people on the other. On paper, to my ear, it doesn’t sound at all weird until one considers the conflation of experience and identity on the side of ...

After writing my last entry, I moved through the house with the purposes of eating and attitude adjusting. Gathering my ingredients at the coffee table, I started making my lunch while scrolling through our DVR to see what we had. Now, if you have Comcast DVR, you know that it always upgrades to HD if it can. HD programs take up twice as much memory as regular TV. In order to maintain as much space as possible, I watch HD programs first. Some programming I have to watch with Ryan -- you know,...

I'm going to splice a few consonants and vowels together in an attempt to express the uniqueness that is Bro. Quentin.
Creative, Articulate, Fierce, Sensitive, and Controversial are some of the adjectives that come to mind when trying to describe, Q. He keeps it real; often saying the things I'm too diplomatic to say. It's all love though.
I respect Quentin's integrity and willingness to shoot from the hip. If I ever need honest advice, I know who to turn to. All in all bro is multifaceted and never ceases to amaze with random, albeit timely, observations!
cheers!

Quentin is the cool breeze that comes gently, for a moment, on a muggy, hot day, surrounds you and lingers just long enough to remind you of human ideals, classical arts, philanthropy, when you were sweaty and exhausted and just struggling to get to the damn subway. I wish I lived in Seattle where Quentin and I would start TeapotCon 2007. And everyone would have to dress up for High Tea. And the food would be all different colors. Quentin makes tribe a better place, because Quentin is a rockstar. And I should know, because I'm a girlie badass.
