Little Things!

When I was little, my best friend and I used to love going to the creek and catching minnows. I used to wonder what went through their heads as they swam circles in their jar.

Also in keeping with the theme, this painting is the size of an average postcard. Little thing!

Excess

I was feeding the birds earlier this week and a small pigeon tried to fly off with an entire piece of bread.

Pigeons know no moderation!

The bread was so large the bird could barely get off the ground, which struck me as a fun example of excess.

Poem

The Waste Land
T.S.Eliot

"April is the cruellest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain."

"That corpse you planted last year in your garden,
"Has it begun to sprout? Will it bloom this year?"
