year after year
on the monkey's face
a monkey face
--Matsuo Basho
There are homeowners who refuse to be haunted by anything less than a lord or a lady. Refuse to accept their spectres are more likely to be chimney sweeps' climbing boys, maids who took their own lives. Sooty prints and shattered vases tell workers' tales. – #CJosiffe #Ghosts

It'll kill the screwworms in all of us.
Odyssey is perfect tale for our time because we're all lost. O Ithaca
Writing is long periods of nothing followed by long periods of longing followed by periods.
