Headstone … The Walk

Headstone continued … The Walk Headstone In a graveyard nearing dusk the groundskeeper came upon Death, leaning heavily on his knot gnarl anguish handled scythe as he knelt at an almost hidden, fallen stone, shunned, just outside the cemetery, alone, at the edge of a large forest. He wept quietly. “Are you alright old man?”… Continue reading

Not that you asked for it (I mean, who would?) but a handy dandy all in one spot, easy reference, to some things of mine for the Halloween season, oh, and watching some albino looking spider with a seeming translucent head scurry about the walls behind the PC who, I swear, is the same spider… Continue reading

So Then Sunday: You Can Call Me King (song + editorial)

(revised some 10-08) Six years ago I stopped writing “editorials”, long winded things imagining myself as some sort of opinion writer for important newspapers and instead went with song … parodies. Parodies that aren’t parodies really (I hate calling them that) but instead my former long winded editorials whittled down to just short winded words… Continue reading

Third Eye Harvest Moon

Harvest grain, organs, fish, or emotions; imagine the grim reaper with a scythe. Write about something that haunts you, regret, a long-ago love, thoughts of someone… Continue reading

About Me

Hi and welcome to the attic, I’m Frankenberry of said blog title and I write of just my everyday here, sometimes funny, sometimes heartfelt, sometimes angry, sometimes funny again because, well, who don’t like funny, thoughts on getting older and sometimes stuff that’s just kinda shit. I pen and sing the occasional parody tune and other songs, sometimes I even get a little bit poetical or short story-etical or something like that. If you’re joining me here I thank you, but just mind your head and feet and keep an eye out for my Little Bella and Cricket the Blind as well as the memories of Raspberry (Razzy), Mimi the Quirky, of Blink the lil’ kit, Grayson the Mighty, Shoes the Big Orange, Shana-Girl, Benny Good Man Benny Brown, Merlin & Bob. Wouldn’t want you step on them or anything … ‘cause then I might just have to throw you down the stairs … damned humans.
