Scribbles, thoughts, stories, and other assorted
WRITINGS

Herein lies various mutterings and meanderings that I've transcribed, drawn out from the depths of my imagination. In other words, my writings.

Parthenogenesis, the zine I used to publish, deserves its own page. You'll find the Parthenogenesis Page here.

This section is dedicated to
Calliope, the Muse of Epics.

First, the bite-sized morsels. Some poetry I've written, and some... well, close enough to poetry.

• Acid Reign
• Alone Again
• I Come As Beggar, I Leave As Thief
• Delight
• A Face At the Window
• Everlasting Glory
• I Died
• Life (a work in progress)
• Memory
• Reminiscence
• Serenade
• Thesaurus
• The Twelve Brothers Victory
• We
• a brief collection

Here, moving right along, are some lengthier scribblings. I hesitate to categorize, even though there are some fairly clear definitions in these, so instead of dividing these stories into defined categories, I'll just call one group rutabaga, which to me symbolizes humor, and pomegranate, which to me implies a certain aura of mystery (it's amazing how many people don't know what a pomegranate is) and surrealness. I'll also add a group which I'll call peach, which contains Guapa stuff. I might expand on that later.

Pomegranate:

• One Not Born
• I Dream
• I Descend
• Who Lodges in the Hotel Now?

This section is dedicated to
Thalia, the Muse of Comedy.

Rutabaga:

• the Chronicles of Rit Som T'ng
• the Adventures of the Dime and the Quarter (excerpt)

Peach:

• Genesis of Drunkenness (excerpt)
• the Holy Scrolls of Guapa
• the Book of Mohammed X (excerpt)

Parthenogenesis, the zine I used to publish, deserves its own page. You'll find the Parthenogenesis Page here.
