When I have a chance to see a band live, I get as much out of the experience as I can. Seeing a show is a good reminder that the secret sauce is hard work.
September always makes me hyper-aware of change, which makes sense. It’s also really self-indulgent, but this IS a blog.
I wrote most of an essay, then realized it amounted to five-hundred words on how “writing is hard.” So I scrapped it.
I’m still publishing something every Tuesday, but new poetry/prose/art will be every other week. That gives me the time I need for longer, more complex stuff.

I think my day job in the corporate world is ripe fodder for some neat poetry. “Poetry for Business,” I call it, or perhaps the pithier “Business Poetry,” which sounds like an English elective they’d offer to Business Administration undergrads at a middle-tier East Coast liberal arts college, or maybe Bentley. Or Babson.

This list will be updated on an ongoing basis as new, great band names are discovered. You are welcome and encouraged to submit your own suggestions in the comments section!
