if not now, then ever?

I have also just finished reading The Haiku Anthology (3rd Edition), so good. I guiltfully (is that a word?) bent down a lot of the pages to be able to go back and remember which poems where my favorites. I then recited most of them to some of my closest friends, they enjoyed them too. Some were serious (via exposing universal/human truths), while others were more simple.

mirror//my face where I left it - Bob Boldman
morning surf/a dog fills the sky/with seagulls - Jim Boyd
it is growing dark,/no one has come to the door,/and still the dog barks - L.A. Davidson
back from vacation/I let traces of sand/remain in the car trunk - Robert Epstein
how come/whatshisname/never speaks to me - Dee Evetts
I hear her sew/I hear the rain/I turn back a page - Leroy Gorman
winter night/writing letters/to get letters - Marlene Mountain
acid rain less and less i am one with nature*/*less and less nature is nature - Mountain

Also, for today:
a new video for Panda Bear-Surfer's Hymn



love that it seems spooky, but is actually happy (they're just doing what they love!)

And an amazing/beautiful/lo-fi? video for the newest Fleet Foxes-Grown Ocean. If the embeded video isnt working, try the link below (it is really worth watching!):

That music video makes me want to be best friends with them and live the way they do, so I can be happy like they are. I want my life to be like that video: full of love and freedom.
