It’s been a long time since I’ve posted. I meant to take it easy on myself with blogging this year but not that easy. It has been a damn crazy year so far though. Thankfully, I’ve had a good time writing code and picking up an old hobby or two. I’ve been playing Magic the [...]
It’s been a while since last post. I’m going to try to maintain that this year. If I don’t have something worth putting up, screw putting something up. Maybe there will be some longer, better written essays as a result. For now, I’m putting up poetry which I haven’t done in a *long* time. Wrote this [...]
Just pushing rocks up hills, We starry-eyed symbols analysts, The world turns under our feet out of balance, again.

Somewhere along the way, the music stopped. It used to drift in from across the hall in citrus hues and lilting arpeggios. There was no exhaustion and sleep was restful. We woke up, dogwood blossoms falling from our lips, sun streaming through the windows. Sundays there was french toast and the wind was always behind [...]
You know what today was missing? Some Milosz. I bombed a math quiz today. I mean, actually bombed. As in I think I got a zero. Guess it’s time to go re-read the sections and redo the homework. I wrote a poem recently about how progress is deceptive because it doesn’t feel like progress. It [...]
I meant to post an entry about all sorts of nerdy and interesting computer things I’ve been reading but it’s been delayed. I’ll probably regret posting this but it’s the first thing I’ve written poetry-wise since July. It was sort of an experience. Fear I want the biggest hug I have inside me to swallow [...]
I am not opposed to it. I lived fully and well, spending time perched in dogwoods and chairs to try and learn the lessons of machines, men and dogs in their cacophonous chorus. I am not opposed to it. I eventually did settle with my own thoughts after years of combat. I knew rebellion, fought [...]
This poem was unexpected but I blame it’s inspiration on Hofstadter, The Feyerabend Project (particularly the Sussman quote at the end, NO ONE pays enough attention to the Sussman quote at the end), and the quants. There is a dim luminescence on the edge of the world drawing close. I hardly see it’s call but [...]
These words are caught food from the flipping plate, recorded here for your careful entertainment, your frolicking scrutiny. But I can’t help wondering what I missed which fell in the sea, and what shore those words finally washed upon. Mostly, I wish they were here.
I have learned that Montana is a lonely state. Filled with that beauty which could only belong to abject desolation. They tell me it is the fastest growing county in the state. And here I can more clearly pick out: the howling on the wind, the tracks of my pursuers, and the flock that will [...]
