art & writing

This is my and my friend Christie Liskey's first group of art & writing.  She has a huge collection of sketches and paintings, and I've matched some of those pieces with excerpts from my collection of writing.



Memory in Reverse






 ***




On Days like This

Between life imagined and life lived, distance swells a sea.




***




 Bone Socket Dialects




In the voice of a dream, worry sands syllables from tooth to nerve.




***




How to Scream


Beat my finger's pulse onto your finger's pulse to make us both audible.





***





Estuarine Logic



A shipwrecked church with broken windows found your plastic eyes.





***





 

 Nostalgia


The past, as you know, is the safest place to live since its nightmares have already been dreamt.  




***






  Tides


Somewhere else, we are white sand orchestrating water.





***





 Insomnia


Knowledge of night is a feeling not even a lifetime can master.  





***






Recollection


The way the world looks through fevered eyes is how first memories unfold.
