Pale for Weariness
Eden: a place of ignorance from which you are forcibly expelled, over and over. Finding two cruel high school teachers years later; a first, shattering sexual adventure; realizing the imminent breakup of a marriage against the backdrop of war protests; making up family members; a student jumps out of a third floor classoom; an unusual way of caring for a dying relative; three doctor visits in one day; an old man's fantasy; the perils of certainty; a freakish occurrence of happenstance that changes everything; a serial murderer hiding in plain sight; a demented US Senator running for President. Stories and essays about constantly learning how life does what it does, will not bend to our wills; about trying to stay awake, trying to learn, but always behind the arc. About trying to become compassionate, loving, useful, generous, and kind, even if just a little more than now. About always being kicked out of Eden.
The Last Train to Noyo
Buzz cut, two half-crutches which he swings into the aisle ahead of him. Steadying himself, he clop-swivel-grunts his way to Harry's spot at far end of the car. One of the few people on the train to be wearing a mask and gloves because of the virus, about which the governor of California has just mandated such protective equipment. Standing a few feet from Harry and Jesse, he throws his crutches against the far wall near the bathroom; they slide to the floor in a clatter. Harry redeposits them against the far wall. The big guy takes off his mask, pockets it.

Great Artists Talk to America
What could Michelangelo possibly have to tell modern Americans about their religious beliefs? Did Andy Warhol have anything meaningful to say about American industry? Was Rembrandt a Buddha in disguise? Did Mark Rothko and Edward Hopper actually believe colors could evoke primal emotions such as wonder and sadness? Artists are thinkers first. They reflect the issues of their day, but many often tap into transcendent themes that both bedevil and delight all people everywhere in all time periods. These essays speak to contemporary American concerns about religion, politics, media, culture, and science. All are informed by the brilliant thinking and talent of artists from ancient Greece to America bearing on this precise moment. You don't need an art degree to follow the discussion, just an inquiring mind.
