The unfinished painting

By Jack Brummet

This large canvas has been sitting neglected on an easel since last spring.  I'll get back to it eventually...

Poem: The Bad Movie


By Jack Brummet


I can't believe it's still running.
There's miles of bad footage to come.
This loge seat is a throne of pain.

It's a talkie, but no one says anything.
There is no music, no sound design,
Only the projector clicking.

We can't stop watching.
The camera careens drunkenly
Around what might be the action.

It's so murky,
It could be pornography,
Or footage of an alien or Sasquatch.

The camera dollies in
On a random piece of litter.
Someone fiddles with the lens

And the scene shifts into deep focus.
We can't
Stop watching.

The Grateful Dead's album Shakedown Street was released 34 years ago today



I believe this sign is in front of a head shop in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Poem: Lost At Sea

By Jack Brummet



The rings of the splash
Send dopplers into the void,
Widening and disappearing 
In the cold and lonely sea.
