Brush for Pen?

I've been wielding paintbrushes tonight.

Danger! Danger! Watch out world!

Here's my favorite coffee mug cum brush cup:



The result of a little time spent in some acrylic, a great Pandora station and a flowing mind:

Vowels

"The Best of American Poetry 2007" is really, really good this year.

My favorite poem of the bunch:


"Vowels"
by Christian Bok

loveless vessels

we vow
solo love

we see
love solve loss

else we see
love sow woe

selves we woo
we lose

losses we levee
we owe

we sell
loose vows

so we love
less well

so low
so level

wolves evolve
