AUTHOR.CALHO: If I didn't write it, I would be hitch hiking cross country to Maine and then Alaska in that order. While taking frequent breaks to spread leaflets. And sit in diners. And write on things because I wasn't at a computer. I may still do that in a few years. Writing this also helps me forget about and better understand the limitations of being human, and keeps me busy enough to allow me no free time to burn the world down.

THEMATIC.ABOUT : Collapse often. The things that hold people together and hold them apart and scatter brains. The things that make thoughts go boom. The things that ooh and aah and [expletive deleted]. Sometimes poking around the margins where responsibility ends and the only one to look to is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and say "but, I already pressed 9 for more options and the menus are exactly the same. Can you just replace it?" The answer will be: "please hold." Sometimes hanging out in dark corners. Sometimes following the train tracks. Looking for ways out and ways in and all the while sharing the things seen and heard and done and drawn and written and scorched and healed and teased and caged and dreamed along the way.

The honorable mentions in very particular order.  The higher up, the closer to the final cut.

Kendrick Lamar - Backseat Freestyle
The Knife - Rock Classics

This was the year of the wolf divining new methods of self governance.  Rewriting it's own rules and amending it's doctrine.  Enjoy.  Honorable mentions tell no tales and get no links.  If you want to talk to them, you can find them in the clink.  A little place where we keep half ideas.  Things we fear.  Say it three times and they'll appear.  The body you thought stayed buried is floating by the pier.  Next time, put more concrete in the socks.  Everyone stopping by is not a bot.

It was, though, one of the roughest and strangest and smoothest to date.  With the year end look and this, the bookend to 2015, the only thing to do is look ahead to two thousand oh one and six.






///the year is written.  let it go.  thank you for loving me.  thank you for being there.  one of these days we may be eating at the big table.  in the meantime, you know you have a place at mine where the reeds are just high enough and the shade just thick enough for no one to notice we're there by their fire too.
