Spider on the Line

Hello,

The flower above is ablaze in my garden, praise be to Jah!
Myself and Aisling were out in it the other night, too, when we espied an arachnid weaving its intricate web by the clothesline. Being an avid recorder of interesting things in this world (well, I think they're interesting), I began filming the little fellow and his thin home with my iPhone. On the piece, there's a nice exchange to be heard betwixt myself and herself in which we comment upon the sheer wondrousness of it all. Sadly, there's also a rather lame attempt at wit on my part towards the one-minute mark in which I draw a tenuous link to the new Spider-Man film. Apologies for that, but I've no doubt you will enjoy the rest of the short film.

With deep humility,

Brian

What's gone wrong, what's brought on such a massive change? From highness on the wine of life to hungover on earthly strife. Gliding gulls in the grey sky. Dublin December morning. You're the golden summit of what comes up here to live every single day.  He worried that he was becoming numerically dyslexic. He would seek out Catalan lessons in the new year. It was the day when Unwin and Quintana came by. One of those recurring dreams I have set on Abercorn Road. In a technology trance he thought of colonies on the ...

The Far Enchanting Shore

  v.1  I felt the breath of angels        As I walked out the door        They came from the future        From a far enchanting shore.        I spoke to my robot        When I got home at night        I asked it to show me        God's eternal light.                      chorus                 First we're here             And then we're gone  x2 v.2 I danced with the angels       In the morning on the beach       They spoke to me of places       That were just beyond my reach.       I spoke to my robot       Later in the day      I told it I relied upon      The things it had to say.       ...

A True Story

      Wherein we encounter Mr. Grudge Galmount...   Forget wood. He wanted to be a carpenter of words. So he persevered and wondered if he was writing the longest suicide note in history.   He was jolted in his mind to St. Valentine’s day in 1996:                                                          “Morning time blinding sun,                                               Terrible letter has come,            ...
