I was a parakeet in Spanish Harlem during a past life. I’m sometimes visited by the Angel of Death, but it’s mostly sports updates. I was born in Colorado, but I identify as a New Yorker. I enjoy the numinous transcendence of walking down the street.

NYC, East Village 2020 After a fairly long stint of sobriety, I found myself at St. Marks Hotel. Prior to a fairly recent renovation, it had been notorious for drugs and prostitution. The week that followed was pure magic. #nyc

This was already on my radar, but as luck would have it— turned up in the the laundry room. Fell right into my lap. Essentially, it’s Huckleberry Finn, but told from the perspective of Jim. If that isn’t a novel idea, I don’t know what is. #booksky #luckyfind

Years and years ago, I picked this up at the library book store, only just recently getting around to reading it. And to my surprise it’s autographed. Who the hell Greer or possibly Green is, I’ll never know, but I digress. #booksky #luckyfind

What a read. It addresses the dark side of British Imperialism, racism, political corruption, morality, heartache, and even suicide. But it’s left me with one burning question; Why did Flory, just prior to his own suicide, eliminate his beloved dog, Flo? #booksky

Mother Nature’s relegated me to wearing readers. Nothing too unusual according to the optometrist. As one ages, the lens begins to lose its elasticity. Among other things.

Novels are great, but it’s academic non-fiction where I truly feel out of my depth—in a good way. #booksky
