'ku 17.10.2017

university town stumbling upon the unemployment office

eating charcoal ice cream new moon

*

no day
rain has a habit
of starting

*

there also there russet leaves

'ku

autumn breeze
the coffee
still too hot

*

battle weary

the millionaires
of convex combinations

loaned bedpans
producing hallucinations
of lonely dachshunds

*

death has left me behind - autumn dusk

'ku

autumn equinox
the last light of summer
caught in the yew’s berries

*
slow dusk
the water’s surface
takes a vacation

*
autumn equinox
I ask a fisherman
about the salmon

*
the clouds 
become architecture
a dream
falls into
a big nothing

30 Days Wild (Day 13) Cathkin Park

Cathkin Park houses the remnants of an old football stadium, the second Hampden Park and home to the famous 3rd Lanark, surrounded by a small wooded area. It's a lesser known park, outside of history and football enthusiasts, with being quite close to the larger Queens Park but nonetheless worth seeing if you're in the area for its historic significance as well as the unique remnants of the stadium contrasted with the small wooded area. 

Today continued in its overcast grey drizzle - but it is what it is. The walk was nice though. City parks provide this weird postcard of how things are. Sure the busy roads and what have you might mute the bees but it's still there. The high rises are shadow the even tallest trees. The city park is like a little slice of the intensity and strength of the natural world; regardless of our progress it still pushes through. This aside it can simply provide a place to relax or sit for a few minutes. 

ruined stadium -
all that remains
are bird songs

30 Days Wild (Day 7) In Clouds

There's something about sitting watching clouds. Sure it's lazy and somewhat indulgent but yet there's something more to it. Today I took in the clouds around the Queens Park and Langside area. 



calm….
in the heart of a lake
undulating clouds
