"An Unrehearsed Poem" by M received this evening in a swap at the Swap-O-Matic at Ample Hills Creamery. I’m fascinated by this project’s purpose and social commentary, and even found myself weighing the options of what I wanted to take through the lens of what it would say about and mean to me. (If I… Continue reading
"Tangential Brooklyn" My buddies Lindsay and Jared are beyond amazing. They made me the most incredible art ever. The photo I took of it in dull apartment lighting doesn’t do it justice.
