Behold, above, the liverjournal taking its name from one of my pieces.
Or, for an alternate option: life as a dinosaur (which can explain allie's dinosaur jokes, or could, if she was around to make any more. And I could still update this, but I don't. Alas.)
Or, for an alternate alternate option: the blog no one knows of that I started to remind myself how to write (this, I occasionally do write in, and parts sometimes become poems).
I was thoroughly infatuated with Red Lady by d.a. levy for a while, as both a story and a character, and consequently there's a number of references to her in some of my stuff. I haven't touched Bukowski in a while; maybe I should.
Sometimes I was manikin. But now the manikin poems are consolidated with consolidatory madness, so they can be found here. Woo!
I don't delete poems. But about half of mine are now 'unknown' to clear out clutter from my list. They might come back to knownness someday, but for now are non-canon semaj work (all footnoted as such, so if you want to see them, search for 'semaj' and they'll show up).
