New Year’s Eve, Stinky Joe and “For the Love of Benji”
(a silly sort of stream ramble) Now I don’t know about you all but I didn’t really have anything in mind for this New Year’s Eve, very much unlike New Year’s Eve’s from recent years past where I, at best, have ended up panhandling on a street corner in the morning or busking with no… Continue reading

It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Patrick (Christmas cat song)
Well it’s that time of year for this one again, an annual holiday tradition now for me to post it (if a third year running is enough to constitute “tradition”) if for no other reason, than, as a crazy cat lady guy, I just really like it. Though I did include it recently in a… Continue reading

Christmas Kitten (poem)
So a prompt for the holidays, an Etheree poem (no, I had no clue either) focusing on Christmas trees and themes of such. The full explanation of an Etheree poem and examples and the rest is in the link to the prompt from dVerse Poets here, An Etheree Tree, but it is … … write in… Continue reading

I Alone … and Cricket the Cat (poem)
New Quadrille prompt, a dVerse poem of just 44 words with a word to include . This time around, in the prompt from Lisa, the word is “with”. And the 44 word count does not include the title by the way. Well, I thought to one of my cats and my well practiced solitude. I… Continue reading

Revisit: Of Radio Engineers, Cat Crunchy Paper & Possible Spaceships (audio post)
Ya know, being happily single, unencumbered by singleness allows me time to explore further the reasons I am said happily single. There’s no pillow talk, no equal toes and ankles under sheets, no sidestepping feet in a morning’s perfectly choreographed dance in the kitchen, no phone calls during the day just to check in and… Continue reading

Possible Sniffers (flash fiction)
A new flash fiction prompt from Melissa, to write something from this pic. “Mom, stop, we’ve talked about this, it’s a different day. Artie and I have told you, plus you know I can’t, I have messed up insides, we just can’t, just deal with Chrissy and Semblance (of a cat) and Penelope. Now are… Continue reading

To Pee Or Not To … I Didn’t Pee (Cujo the Cat song) – A Revisit
The other day as I was checking out my Blog stats at WordPress, the platform I use for the Attic and one of the cool things about WordPress, the ability to see your sites “traffic”, I noticed that an older parody tune of mine had recently gotten a couple of unexpected downloads/listens. Now I am… Continue reading

So Then Sunday: New Cat Scratcher … Sir?
Since the end of February I have been dealing with a back issue, a really bad back issue actually, after popping it turning a doorknob at the bottom of a flight of stairs at the old apartment. I know, the simplest of things right? I mean if you’re going to pull your back it should… Continue reading

I Bella (me & steve) – (poem)
Yesterday at dVerse Poets Melissa presented us some artworks of Louis Wain and his famous cats as well as some of his story. So from Melissa was this, “the assignment”, choose one of the artworks of Wain’s that she included in her post (dVerse link above) and write a poem of it. The only stipulation… Continue reading

Oompa Loompa Bob Song: An Oompa Loompa Cautionary Tale Eulogy
So a friend, Drew, recently posted to the Facebook this meme … … and I thought well, what if the Oompa’s showed up at the funeral of this meme guy, a fella named Bob maybe, whose ‘last mistake’ was actually his LAST mistake. Now, if anyone was wondering why it’s been so long since I’ve… Continue reading
