woden's day.


keeping it real. keeping it rural.
whats 'hood? apparently weird trucks are. it says so itself.


beaver destroyer.
what does it mean when a dead beaver is defrosted from the bottom of a snowbank?
i dont know, but beavers are still symbolic....check it.
i hope that doesnt mean the reverse when its all bloatie and swarmie and festy.
i vanilla sky-ed this guy after watching some BBC 'Narnia'... mr. and mrs. beaver scared the kids.
low budget make-up = horrifying nightmares of yellow teeth and squatty oddbodies. word.


like the rolling stones said:
dont play with me, 'cuz you play with FIRE!
if you dont have the hot heat and lava lungs to spit it,
be careful. hot fire is not for regular folks. only for b.b.b.b.*
this sign showed up in chatham, n.h. i think 1982 teleported it there.
take heed. be careful. don't play, son.

we made this. it was collectively our first wreath. HarvestMaple, Jess and i all got it together,
along with some wire and the saplings our terrible plow guy uprooted. its a little rough,
and kinda all over the place, but i like it that way. birch wreath, my ninjas.
learn about birch trees HERE, and about other birch magic, a la May Day, HERE.
what stuff means, i'm sayin', is what its all about.
like when something is super elite, and brutally dope.
and then you find out how much more dope it actually is. thats word.


i tried to take pictures of smoke rings. its hard by yourself.
i thought of them as ghost circles. not like in 'BONE' comics, (buy the complete collected volume)
but more like little portals. or lenses. look through 'em. specter's spectacles.
the film was a thousand years old...but then, the grainy, messy look kind of works.
grit-grimey ghosts. circles. circlets. rings. fading promises, even.

so i'm just sayin',
i'm blowing smoke rings, ya'll.
silent grey notes, loud beyond hearing, calling all my fading promises back.
little ashen windows, circular shadows, perfection as a disappearing act.
cryptic crowns for regent spirits.
evidence of ignition. corroborated combustion.
hot fire burns. theres no smoke without fire. 
spirit and memory ...i'm saying.
spirit, and memory, never quiet, never soft.

the sign says: be extra careful with fire.
 a word, to the wise, is sufficient.
