Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today to get through this thing called life
Electric word, life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you there's something else
The afterworld
It’s Pope Leo at the mic and he says “let’s go crazy”

This is Elmo, insanely handsome and a real asshole. He was climber and a door opener and a would scream at the top of his lungs if he saw an unfamiliar person or animal outside. I loved him completely
Elmo laying on his side on a brown leather sofa, looking at the camera. He’s an orange tabby with a white goatee Elmo the cat was a big old orange blump Elmo staring at you from behind a window. His eyes are SO green

It’s 31 degrees, feels like temp 17 (!!!), in Atlanta in early November and that wouldn’t have happened in Joe Biden’s America, I tell you what

Oh hello
It’s Artemis, a tuxedo cat, belly up on my kid’s lap, her back legs spread and her front paws hanging at the wrists a la Monty Burns. If you look closely her tongue is slightly out

Big fall vibes this morning
Approaching the farmers market. There are white tents with trees around in shades of red and gold and green. Two ladies pushing strollers are walking ahead on a wet road A tree-lined street. The trees almost canopy and are all orange and red A big gorgeous yellow ginkgo. The sky behind it is blue with wispy white clouds A giant yellow tree with smaller orange one in front. The ground under them is covered in fallen leaves

He’s eating my motherfucking gourds
Three pumpkins on a front porch. A squirrel sits atop the middle one leaning over to gnaw on the first one. On the other side of that same pumpkin are visible chew holes

Alone with her thought
A young tortico cat rests inside a cardboard box that had a hole cut out of it. Her front paws are tucked under and her eyes are open and staring into space blankly.

Flowers in the attic
A spooky photo of my house. It’s a craftsman bungalow at night. It’s dark and there are clouds. Pumpkins line the front stoop and the screened porch is aglow with lights. There’s a light on in the attic… A closer shot of my house.A demonic looking young girl peers down from the attic window
