Today, like any other, alone
Among the people, searching
for that hand to hold,
That bowl of dreams,
some peace, and healing.
The afternoon, dinner
in the oven, listening
to some faded music on this
salvaged stereo, I fade
into sleep until the
downpour, with its waterfall
cascading from the roof
teases me to
consciousness.
Darkness, and Morpheus leads me
through the pain, first,
to midnight and its nightmare,
then unto twilight.
Oh to fly again
through purple banks of fog
rolling silently down that
abandoned hill, in the
solitude of a late summer
dawn. My life is nothing
but memories now,
that none would believe.
Perhaps I will see you ag
Sometimes I think I am from another galaxy, and became marooned on this dirtball planet when the hyper-dimensional jump drive in my Hilbert Space trans-locational vehicle malfunctioned. Fortunately, there are others from my home-world here as well, and most of us are fairly well hooked-up. Biologically, I am a beat-up old man who has managed to survive more than half a century on this world, and though I am effectively alone, perhaps forever, I love to create. Perhaps someday I will have the skills to transfer the images and forms of my dreams into tangible reality.
Feel free to contact me, I like most people.

A good day doing art. Did two drawings of running horses with charcoal from the woodstove. This Icelandic horse turned out well, for a 20 minute drawing. The only problem with drawing using the lump charcoal is that it frags like crazy. I actually pr...

Hey thanks for the welcome! I've been here before, in another incarnation, as it were, and returned. I'll check out your links. An online buddy of mine told me about this site back in 2004 or so, and I stop by occasionally to look at the beautiful art people post. Stay devious

Ooh a llama! Yay! I'd ride it, but would probably injure the poor creature, so I'll just pet it and feed it some llama bisquets and let it romp in the Andes, where it belongs. I will be checking out your work later today. I have a strange sympathy for anyone who calls him/herself "chateaugrief" as I seem to dwell in a house of woe myself. A smile works well to unlock those doors, however, so here's a spare:
