Reading Emergent Strategy with friends-Updated!

I am going to embark on a new project while I try to heal from Covid19 complications and autoimmune issues. Since several friends wanted to read Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown but they struggled to find an accessible audio book version, I decided to try my hand at reading it out loud. This is… Continue reading Reading Emergent Strategy with friends-Updated!

Poetry: Birth

Birth by Aidan Zingler (fractal also by me) Scattered enriched guts splattered across the skies, Bubbling froth, seething energy permeating space-time Wisp of a second, our existence overlooked by the brilliant magnitude of a 13.7 billion year old. Intrepid explorers, we stumble into the black vastness of a giant, violent ocean — star-birthing hurricanes, with… Continue reading Poetry: Birth

Trans Lives Festival

I haven’t been well for awhile due to a minor surgery, but I was determined to make the Trans Lives Festival that was organized by the First Unitarian Church. I’d been helping with some of the organizing, mostly with getting the word out and encouraging folks to keep at it. Since the end of March… Continue reading Trans Lives Festival

An Art Show

For the month of March, my fractal art will be on display at the local Unitarian Universalist Church! This means I may have potential buyers for my art. My pricing really depends on the piece. I do not give out the digital copy unless the person is willing to pay for that extra, and it’s… Continue reading An Art Show

2018: Dawn of a New Year

This hasn’t really helped my health at all, but at least I… Continue reading 2018: Dawn of a New Year

National Poetry Month: Sequence of Tanka Inspired by Break My Fucking Sky’s Album Final Breath

Drift on winds of time pulsating drone spears the heart A tremble of notes Sprinkled atop harmony wraps around the panicked mind. . Feet crunch broken rocks gloved hands release the stairway alien landscape ripples with mirages, heat above the star gleams blood red. . Hurricane of pain stabs the mind, body with fire energy… Continue reading National Poetry Month: Sequence of Tanka Inspired by Break My Fucking Sky’s Album Final Breath

Interlude of Truth: The Saga of a Bird and From Order to Chaos

An Introduction of Sorts This is a sequence of poems and fractals — many of the poems I wrote in 2016, though bits of the first segment (I) is from 2015, and the final segment (V) was from 2017. Both the fractals and poems explore the beauty I shared with my former partner but also… Continue reading Interlude of Truth: The Saga of a Bird and From Order to Chaos

National Poetry Month: A Ghazal: Pain

National Poetry Month: A Return to the Ghazal I originally wrote this poem on April 11, 2017 but debated posting it on my blog. It chronicles a journey I took recently, where it felt like my internal self was being erased by others and my story disregarded or distorted by others. I am still recovering… Continue reading National Poetry Month: A Ghazal: Pain
