If you look closely at the edge of a black hole it becomes obvious that the entire universe is made of little tiny things.

This drawing exists, somewhere.

I did this drawing a few years back. After I finished the drawing I took this picture of it with my cell phone and then I gave the drawing to my brother. Never a good idea but I love him and he liked it so why not. He actually had it framed and he put it up in his office at work. Prominently displayed. For a few years and then he left that job and had to clear out his office so he took it home. My brother owns a big house with a lot of piles of stuff in the attic and in the basement and in the garage and in closets and last year when I asked him if I could borrow the drawing so I could get a better picture of it he said he'd look for it and then after a day or so he told me he couldn't find it. It's buried in one of the piles somewhere he said and well, he can't find it.

So it goes my friends.

I know it's there somewhere.

Drives me nutz.

I'm glad I took the picture.

If I could only fly

Almost felt you touching me just now Wish I knew which way to turn and go Feel so good, then I feel so bad Wonder what I ought to do

If I could only fly, if I could only fly I'd bid this place goodbye and come and be with you But I can hardly stand, I got no where to run Another sinking sun, one more lonely night

Random hotel

Los Angeles 2019

I keep having this recurring dream. In the dream I'm looking for a home to live in. I'm always alone in an unfamiliar city. As I search for a home I have a tired lost feeling. And then I wake up and I remember that I have a home. It's such a relief.

Time and Entropy

Time and entropy arise mutually like a boat and its wake.

Entropy is fractal which means that time never began.

So relax.
