“Ode to a Polish Plum Cake,” by Eric Robert Nolan

Leave a comment

Infused in crumbling crust
is delectable violent violet –
a pounded plum,
a welt of fruit.
Oh, if my lips could peruse
that square and powdered sugar-bruise.

My artisty-type friends are posting a lot of paintings depicting spring leaves — my mind keeps going to O. Henry’s “The Last Leaf.”  (And of course it takes place in November in New York City.)

You can find it right here at East of the Web, if you’re interested.

And East of the Web, with which I’m only now getting acquainted, seems like a terrific site.

Everyone’s cracking Ides of March jokes. It makes me want to take a stab at it.

Feeling thankful for what I have.

Leave a comment

Food, a nice place to live in a city that I love, a wonderful girl and loads of good friends. A good portion of the world is not so lucky.

Perspective is a good thing.

Eschewing the Oxford comma — that’s something else I’m thankful for.
