Happy Mardi Gras, Y'all!
Why is it that every time I speak to a non-New Orleanian during Carnival, I always want to try to explain to them that it isn't about boobs, it's not about hangovers, it's not about the gaudy extravagance??? Well, not entirely. I try to tell them, Mardi Gras is Jazz bands on the radio and practicing in tucked away…

this life?
this life is not what it appears to be the broken hearted, the disenchanted collect by the roadside pouring over their broken dreams while the electric sky falls upon it's unsuspecting victims and reveals the skeletons from the past lives fogotten empty houses lie in wait souls searching for unobtainable things and the…

How could you know?
How could you know? I'm missing my life jacket now still trying to stay above the waves of my days If I never tell you, how could you know that I'm quite sad about letting you go? Though I feel damned if I do, and damned if I don't. How could you know the hole you left if I never tell you? I'm quieter, softer, smaller,…

January 22, 2013
I'm taking a vacation from the routine. I need more space. I find the lack of change discouraging and I don't want to think poorly of people I love. Maybe, we can call it a retirement from active duty? Maybe take an honorable discharge? Love Always, Annie

And so
And so this flower has born witness to the busy bumble bee, a hum, ahem! A tightly wound bud well past its prime for opening Flourishes in the slow probe that announces the bloom Unknown to the thorns that harbor this petal Floating Drifting at once a light In flight, fleeing the admittance of a beauty so deep Steeped in…

The Rose Jam Show: stories from the PearlJam Pond collection
Hello forum! I wrote a short story last year if I remember well: the idea was that I just wanted to finish a story cause I had started tens of them and never finished one. So the quality might have suffered from the speed of writing so as to finish and have something to show the world. I narrated and interpreted the…

passed away, but living through his music... please read
My husband was an avid fan of Pearl Jam. He'd never had a Ten Club membership so I got him one for his birthday a few months back and am using it to post. He took a lot of inspiration from them, through the lyrics and they way they influenced his life, and he derived a style kind of his own, but with Pearl Jam elements...…
