Istanbul

i could stare at this for a while
old and new
so i says to mabel, i says
cascading domes
crossing the galata
i'm sorry, i thought i told you to build a mosque with domes
make for the open door
sweets? we got those, too
delicious diabetes
see and be seen on istiklal street
fishing the golden horn
cross-continent ferries
heads on parade
the eye of the sultan is upon you
lamplight
why so glum, chum?
gah, history is SO BORING
dressed to the nines
through the scrollwork
the scrollwork
you want tea? we got tea
this trip fueled by tea

I’m fascinating!

I’m a professional writer, editor, napper, and dog-snorgler. I like short walks on the beach, long walks in the city, and a cold cherry lime rickey.

I write things here, and am working on building this.
