in creative news, i've been doing a fair amount of writing since i've been here. i've been focused mainly on short poems & haikus (this city can be captured so well in seventeen syllables!). also, i've been outlining a semi-autobiographical account of my travels from east to west. the physical journey isn't much to write about, but the implications are so great that i feel i'd be a fool not to put it to paper - potentially learn a thing or two about myself & this ageless country in the process.
note to self: first purchase after finding permanent residence must be a type-writer. this computer screen is blinding & i find myself constantly distracted.
lights sound batteries

pornography & rock n' roll
trains upon trains of thought

wish me luck this evening!

Sometimes I feel the same way about sitting in front of a screen for too long. It's good to spend time outdoors, I hear. Check out the Red Woods if you get the chance. Maybe let us know what you think of them- what it's like out there.
ReplyDeleteIt's great living if you're into trees, apparently.
