Slow going still beats a kick in the pants!
Category: Creation
Stuff about creative efforts – making things, reusing things – that bring us closer to the primal force of creation itself.
Haiku: Liaison
Because sometimes all you need is someone who can explain things to you in a common language.
Haiku: Investigation
Investigation Asking a question will do more to enlighten than any answer. I think my chaotic season is finally coming to a close. My office is usable and the new Clan Ross home is coming together. I hope to be able to get back to … Continue reading Haiku: Investigation
Haiku: Cards Against Humanity
Cards Against Humanity Ronald Reagan surprise sex! Exactly what you’d expect. Funny story: I’m playing a game with friends called “Cards Against Humanity”, and I draw this black card that says “make a haiku.” Weird, right?? You guys know me! Then I realized that I … Continue reading Haiku: Cards Against Humanity
Haiku: Causation
Causation If belief moves life, “wonderful things will happen” should be our mantra. This, despite the fact that WordPress has nuked Zemanta and now I have to figure out my own free images – sheesh. But I just keep telling myself: wonderful things will happen!
Haiku: Steady, now —
Steady, now —
Sometimes you just do
whatever it takes to make
your next beginning.
This is a little frustrating – the Internet was cutting out on me all morning before going to work. I’m trying to keep my cool, but if I can’t wrangle it out the cable company is going to feel all of the ire my Ancient Scottish roots can handle.
Haiku: Complacency
Complacency
A contemplative

You know that moment you realize that you’re slacking, and you fear that you’re going to lose whatever it is you’re working for to unseen forces encroaching just beyond your immediate horizon?

But will that dissuade the beast at my horizon?
Haiku: Hounded
Hounded
Wind! Howling so loud

Haiku: Genius
Genius
An imagineer
of the status quo not seen.
The bomb — lesser evil.

Weekly Photo Challenge Haiku: Beginning II
Beginning II
Back to work — no prob.
After running the gauntlet,
I welcome this life.
Well, after two weeks off it’s finally time to return to what is considered to be normal. In some ways I’m looking forward to it – training on the Mazak laser cutting machines, earning my wages again and not getting paid through a magically finagled combination of holiday pay and paid time off. My widdershins world is running rightways again. The thing I will miss most is being able to spend the day at home with my ladies, Mme Ross and the wee one.
