Today, it’s published on a website dedicated to hair loss haikus. You can revisit my haiku, and find others, here. I especially like ‘To Those Who Mock Me’. And I love the way that hair loss – through cancer or not – is transformed, on this site, to a thing of poetry. Enjoy. (Is it tactless to browse while running my fingers through my hair?!)

The pain of the Japanese people will be long and deep. I do understand some of the lingering resentment of Japan. My own uncle Louis B.

The ones that are already here in the “my poems” section of the blog will stay here as well. Poems can bilocate. That is something that is fascinating to me this early in the morning. Yes, I know it’s just past nine, but these things are relative. The humidity and pollen in the air combine to sap my energy. But what I also meant to say is this: my new poems, the ones that I am creating now, go over to a night kitchen and will likely not be found on this blog. There’s a new one now. Go see.

Indeed: Sometimes (a lot of times) in our house, a little goes a long way. My son Charlie can talk, mostly in short phrases or single words and six words at one time from him is quite a lot. Blue ocean, Chinese food, I know. It’s telegraphic speech, in which a single word is connected, by fibers invisible and strong as the threads of a spider’s web, to a full cosmos of meanings. All in just six words.

Peace, Doc Copyright © 2008, Thomas A. Blood, Ph.D. "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." - George W. Bush “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extensi...

This is a photo of a dish we sampled in the second restaurant we went to in the food tour, Haiku.  Obviously, it’s a Japanese restaurant and me, being a lover of Japanese food, enjoyed this part of the trip immensely (as well as some other parts too, but I’ll get to that later).  And this pretty little thing got my attention the moment it was set on the table by the friendly waiter.  And for this, my vote for the Resto with the best-tasting food goes to Haiku (tied up with another resto, I’ve to say.  You’ll find out later).  Also, I find Haiku as one of the Restos with the best food presentation for the tour. Also, I think the resto has a thing for starfish ...

Not daydreams. The all out, longer, stranger ones that occur late in the sleep cycle. Traveling in time, changing the past, reliving parts of it, when even being changed by the dreamstuff itself seems possible. I don't really mind if I wake in a panic from a dream if it was interesting. One type that I like the most combines concepts, people, words, images, or events in ways that would be highly unlikely in a waking state. I had one of that sort recently that somehow intertwined my confusion about my future with the mnemonic device for remembering the names of the 12 cranial nerves. Further, in the dream, I realized that the words of the "standard" version of this memory aid had seventeen syllables. Ooh, haiku! Of course upon waking I could not leave the version I had lear...

Now, thanks to this recent article Alvaro and Lisa's Brain Vacation, we can add Brain Fitness Vacation: "A brain fitness vacation is like a regular vacation, only you attend events, do exercises, and arrange for experiences that address the aspects of good brain health: physical exercise, mental exercise, good nutrition, and stress management."
