Remember my post yesterday about David Duchovny’s 2028 presidential bid? That was an April Fool’s Day joke.
I might be losing my touch — I think I fooled almost NOBODY this year. Or maybe you people are just getting sharper in your old age.

Totally NOT an April Fool’s joke.
I’m singing the Polistes carolina blues.
But it could work. Hey, it’s not like there isn’t a precedent for popular entertainers making a successful bid for The White House.
And it be would ironic if he won. His long-running breakout television role was a character trying desperately to expose government conspiracies. A victory in 2028 would make him fully ONE THIRD of that very same government.
I passed a nice milestone yesterday — I’ve now seen my writing and photography appear in 70 ongoing periodicals (in addition to the anthologies and other standalone publications).
🙂
It’s the magazine named for me and my peer group — how could I NOT submit a poem?
Seriously, though, I am quite grateful to Editor in Chief Arthur Graham for publishing “Confession” in this superb and subversive art/lit zine “that will always be for the misfits.”
You can find the poem right here:
Standing by the side of the road, and a raven leaves its perch on the power lines to overfly me.
If you are a fan of “28 Days Later” (2002), then you know that this is a setup for a BAD situation.
Today I have to go back to the same store where I keep leaving my grocery bags at the counter. (There is an alarming paucity of Little Debbie Snack Cakes in my home.)
Keep your fingers crossed that I don’t embarrass myself again. I need to walk out with ALL my bag, so that a polite young person doesn’t have to chase me.
How do I make the same embarrassing mistake at the same store one week later? (You guessed it — I left one of my packages at the counter again, and the poor, beleaguered, young cashier had to run out after the confused old guy with it.)
It’s like a humiliating glitch in The Matrix.
