Poem: A flight of swallows
By Jack Brummet
A
flight of swallows
Spins outside the window.
One by one,
The stars turn on
And the yellow sun
Transmogrifies to dusty rose
As it sinks
In its ebbing light.
The moon's in tune,
Stars turn on
And clouds drape
Across the sky.
In the web
Of the Milky Way, we careen
Through space, twirling on earth's axis,
Around the sun, and into the black.

Across the sky.

Through space, twirling on earth's axis,
Around the sun, and into the black.

Easter Island statue, or laundry detergent? Or both?

This had to be a design geek having fun, or could it actually be just a coincidence?

Poem: Overlap
By Jack Brummet
We
cover the earth
With Venn Diagrams
As our steps
Bisect old steps.

Poem: Water In Motion
By Jack Brummet
Water
in perpetual motion
Drifts into the troposphere
Accumulates and returns to earth
To join ice rain and snow
In the hills and mountains
Rolling into aquifers and underground lakes
Chasms fissures streams
Valleys craters hollows
Creeks rivers lakes and oceans—
The only thing on earth
That never gets old.

Norman Rockwell's portrait of President Richard M. Nixon
By Pablo Fanque, Nat. Affairs Ed.
There is something kind of bizarre about Norman Rockwell's portrait of President Richard M. Nixon. It feels like he captured the real essence of. . .someone else.
