What goes up...

Andrew and I take a sort-of involuntary break from our usual workdays and enter into the realm of painting projects (again) with the usual not-so-hilarious results. When is a black hole a lesson about the unpredictability of life? When you're on a deadline and the ceiling you are painting begins to cave in upon you. Words and images to help you laugh instead of running and hiding, at blog.amynelsonhahn.info -- keep clicking those ads, folks!

Private I-don't-know

Sometimes things,
they just be that way --
you get no explanation
from the hole that suddenly yawns
from the ceiling you roll,
or from your trouser pocket.
But any black hole gaping wide
the words "I don't know"
makes you pause, and in effect
takes the fullness from your day;
where order and meaning locked wills
to keep you wary, chaos sneaks in
and pokes a finger under your ribs.
You have to laugh --
it's that or run and hide.
