Where you live shouldn't determine Whether you live.


Kyenjojo, Uganda.
-we are clarion art history, humanitarians, visionaries, and artists.
-but who are you?
-you are someone who can make a difference.
-after meeting with alissa cooper (http://www.heartforuganda.org/) we have chosen to make a difference.
-one way we did this was through t-shirts sales. the above photo is one of our unique handmade designs. all proceeds go to our campaign to fund this small african town of kyenjojo and provide the children with medical care and education. these $10 shirts are not just an expression of a cause, they are the solution to this crisis.

Flower Power.


The Indecision of a Daisy.





















There we sit

Such a picturesque day
I lean over to say
But I am silenced with your touch

People walk past
Mumbling nothings
I go to say something
But those sharp beautiful eyes don't go away

The flowers laugh and sway
They look at me and say
'He loves you'
'He loves you not'

The people have a foreign laughter
I don't understand
He takes my hand
All the people fly away

Metacongnition.

Metacognition. (n) (1977) - awareness or analysis of one's own learning or thinking processes.

Sitting for the letdown
Belief for a coming
Running down your heart
For sitting and talking
While wishing and down
Falling away parting up
Living during smile explosions
Sinking afloat calling out
Waves of spiked dancing
Whilst whispering and sing
Breaking and stop the beat
Seeing a sea of yellow.

What do we do? Quote the Words of another. Thank you Colin Meloy.


It was a cold night
And the snow lay low


There's a swallow, there's a calm
Here's a hand to lay on your open palm today


And under the boughs unbowed
All clothed in a snowy shroud

All out beyond horizon
A grey sky, a bitter sting


And all the stars were crashing 'round
As I laid eyes on what I'd found


"Oh, adhere to me for we are bound by symmetry
And whatever differences our lives have been
We together make a limb"


Here we lie waiting for something to startle
To shake us from gravity's pull

Fish.

Fish. (n) - any of various cold-blooded, aquatic vertebrates, having gills, commonly fins, and typically an elongated body covered with scales.


Fish have 'binocular vision' as people do; Their depth perception is extremely poor and most of them have a semi-blind spot straight ahead. Sorry fishermen...
