I’m working on a picture of Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller (taken by my late friend, Sam Shaw) and I thought it might be interesting to document it’s stages: so my M&M page does this… please click

Untitled: if we really…
if we really were God
and we had forever to think it through
in our infinite mind
then we would
and wouldn’t
predestine creation
we’d surely throw the pieces
on the canvas like Pollock
let them fall as they may
so that quantum would shuffle
and Darwin would random fit
it all together
and the critters would of course
be selfish and relatively stupid
short sighted
and we’d be blighted
and blessed
with things just as they are

Terry Prachett said something like…
I’d rather be a rising ape
then a fallen angel
we are monkeys
who stopped throwing shit
got down
off the trees
and ended up building things
like lampposts
the renaissance ape
that’s so much more interesting
than bread fish and ribs
wine and dust

I’ve been polishing this poem ( posted as stumblings)…
Untitled: at the bottom of the glass…
at the bottom of the glass
cold currents cut between us
I saw oceans and islands
separated
isolated
these bodies
these others
they seemed empty
sure we are not concrete
and we are ephemera
shifting constellations
a flux
“consciousness” “awareness” “mind”
is it more than a jig
an air
shadows swimming
in bliss and fear
illusions
confusions
momentary clarities
stones in a muddy field
a puddle of twigs and leaves
the almost truths
the almost real
ghost wanderings
looking for a home
looking for a reason
clinging to a name
and its all just a drunkard’s ramblings
gone before he came

darrell still can’t tie his knot, so he expanded it a little
(without undoing it) and took some more photographs
if you can work out how to tie darrell’s knot, please let us know
so first the old pixs, and then the expansions

The photographs show the “front” and the “back” of it.
