Autumn

Lasted two days. Now cold, now windy. Coats up front in closets, summer frocks, shirts, rags in back. Now people who sweated around in wool and scarves and gloves 1 September can be comfortable. Calendar is not best way to gage weather. (Source Link)

Crank

Celly, had one, but not for dinner, library. Quiet room full of studiers. Should it ring, don’t answer and talk. And talk. Gah. Said once, Old man, go screw. Jut mad cause you can’t hear the other end, too. Probably. (Source Link)

Sublime

A mountain and no one to write poetry about it, the mountain does not exist. Chick shows up early when I show up early. She’s after what? No interest, always the way, already decided. (Source Link)

Discounted Words

Signs: underline everywhere, bold, capitalize, mark “arbitrary” quotes, add bangers, exclamations. Confuse its and it’s and buy me an expresso not the espresso wanted. First of all, thirdly, heh, Micro$oft, ‘nuff said, all been done. What’s new? Make it new. Weak memes, mimes, mimicry. Drop your borrowed voice here. (Source Link)
