Entry 1510 — A Working Blog Again
Thursday, July 17th, 2014
As you can see, I can post graphics here again. I have no idea why: I tried to do what I’ve always done yesterday, and got the Pollock below posted. Then I posted a proper version of LeRoy Gorman’s wonderful poem.
My own self isn’t doing better, though. So that’s it for this installment.

Entry 1262 — Jackson Pollock’s “Number 1″
Thursday, November 7th, 2013
My mind is so empty I can’t think of even a bad poem to put Poem into, so here is Pollock’s 1948 painting, “Number 1,” because I happened on it at a website devote to ekphrastic poetry. If I had anything in my brain at all, I could put Poem into it. (Note: the colors seem wrong–I remember it as all black on white. I suppose the blues I see are a computer screen artifact. They give it an interesting wintriness.)
(Note: Once again, I forgot to make this entry public on the day I was supposed to, so it’s two days late. Fortunately, the entry is too trivial for that to matter.)
