I'd summon grouse, rabbit, and deer to the wall,

HAPPY SUMMER.
solstice excellence is happening all around you today.
tune your black-ops detecting, sixth sense, vanilla sky intuition to 'summer'
and feel the force, my ninjas, like the interconnected warrior-poets you are.
i built ^this^ light-bringer today.
wizard sticks and riverwood, and beeswax candles.
i felt a little masculine (i used tools, kinda)
i'm thinking that if this current trend in makiness continues,
i'll have a top-notch summertime barbecue location in no time....
so who's comin' over for a crucial bbbbbbq????
(berserker barbarian battle-beast barbecue, but you already knew it, huh?)

light-bringer.
norse natural candelabra.
torch staff.
call it whatever you want,
i call it dooooooope.
word.


vertebrae.
still connected, too.
my house is becoming more museum-like every day.
the present-day primitive power-house.
tomorrow night we're stenciling death's heads onto the rocks along the river in front of the house.
skeletal shorelines, ya'll.
who's helping to build the barbarian battle-barge?
c'mon,
we'll go viking down the saco river,
keeping it really real, like egil skallagrimsson.

my two most magnificent masterworks are en route to new hampshire.
harvest & maple are comin' up super soon,
and that makes me pretty flippin' pumped. 
summertime is the right time, my ninjas.
we'll be buildin' big heads, ridin' horses, watchin' movies, having outdoor slumber parties,
campfire cookouts, and assorted other epic-scale and miniature-sized adventures in between.
the big fun parenthood 'splosion is set to go off, yo.


i've got a date with this baby this evening.
like it says on the wrapper, there's a love poem inside.
should be a real showstopper.
like i said,
happy summer, ya'll.
