Larkin and Eddy: Neither Here Nor There

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2012/04/neither-here-nor-there.html

Monday, April 30, 2012. Neither Here Nor There. I’m moving. To another part of the city. I like moving. You get to clean the dust off everything, get rid of crap you never use, or haven’t seen for a long time. It’s liberating, yet daunting. However, I’ve realized something, I can’t very well write about living in the Tenderloin, when I don’t, in fact, live in the Tenderloin. For instance, who’s the district supervisor here? What district will I be in? Where’s the post office? My boyfriend and I came with...

Larkin and Eddy: If You Are Coming to the Tenderloin...

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/09/if-you-are-coming-to-tenderloin.html

Wednesday, September 28, 2011. If You Are Coming to the Tenderloin. Wear a flower in your hair, and bring money to park your car in a parking garage. I would have been like, cool, someone’s in my car, he can have that bag of food. But, my sister had just gotten out of the coast guard, which means, she’s already kind of a bad-ass. Her visit this time was a good one, it's always really nice to see her. And no break-ins! October 11, 2011 at 3:03 PM. Your sisters a badass just for her spider-sense! Shortly a...

Larkin and Eddy: Supporting Local Artists

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/11/supporting-local-artists.html

Thursday, November 17, 2011. Last night on Geary and Jones. First, at Public Barber Salon, a few artists producing work in the Tenderloin made a calendar. Twenty bucks buys you months worth of artists juxtaposed with their art. The art will be up until January 16, 2012. Then, around the corner at Kare-Ken. I had fun tonight, and the best part was: I didn't even have to leave my neighborhood. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Quote of the day. Late at night, a man to a prostitute, "Are you a woman?

Larkin and Eddy: What WhhhhATttt Lers Ros?

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-whhhhatttt-lers-ros.html

Wednesday, October 26, 2011. What WhhhhATttt Lers Ros? But it all changed when Lers Ros opened. My go to, have-to-have, the pork belly (#62), crispy on the outside, spicy and delicious. Lers Ros, made me okay with spicy, made me need. The Raw Prawns Salad. But, it’s not over. One day, not too long ago, I’m walking along, headed to Hayes Valley, criss-crossing along the way, and what do I see…deception! Lers Ros in Hayes Valley! It can’t be true. I’m sad and confused. I feel betrayed! Quote of the day.

Larkin and Eddy: Poopy Here, Poopy There, Poopy Everywhere

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/01/poopy-here-poopy-there-poopy-everywhere.html

Friday, January 21, 2011. Poopy Here, Poopy There, Poopy Everywhere. A book I quite enjoy states, Everybody poops, and in San Francisco, everybody poops on the sidewalks of the Tenderloin! Why is San Francisco so dirty? I say, what a perfect time to invest in cleaning and beautifying the city. This is a call to action, for business owners, and the city Supervisors, especially you, Jane Kim, new Supervisor of District 6, whom I voted for, please invest in the cleanliness of our amazing city; and to busine...

Larkin and Eddy: San Francisco Favela

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/09/san-francisco-favela.html

Thursday, September 8, 2011. There's a shanty town across the street right now. My Mom had bipolar disorder. There was a year when I didn’t see her. I couldn’t handle it. I let her drop out of my world, and into oblivion. She refused to take the medication she was required to take, and would, on occasion slip into, what I referred to as, ‘an episode’. September 8, 2011 at 5:19 PM. Fuck yeah its the right thing to do! You preach it sista! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Quote of the day. Shortly after...

Larkin and Eddy: I'm Not Black But My Hair Is

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2011/07/im-not-black-but-my-hair-is.html

Tuesday, July 5, 2011. I'm Not Black But My Hair Is. A Sorta-Ode to All Those Blogs About Fashion, Tenderloin Style. All about my fashionable? So now, it's all curly, all the time. For so many decades curly hair has been marginalized. Every time I flip through a fashion magazine that does not choose to represent the women with hair I can relate to, I know this country has a lot of work to do as far as Equality goes. I'm not sure if Anne Hathaway actually has curly hair, but in the movie, Princess Diaries.

Larkin and Eddy: February 2012

http://larkinandeddy.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Friday, February 3, 2012. Dotties True Blue Cafe:. Has moved from it's Jones Street location over to 6th, between Market and Mission. Went there five days after it had reopened, and I'm sad to say the food wasn't what it used to be. The scramble was undercooked, and my potatoes were not crispy. But my pancake, that I shouldn't have ordered, because it was WAY too much food, was delicious! My Planned Parenthood on Eddy, between Van Ness and Franklin, has closed its doors:. As I left, I was crazy angry and...

N literature clandestinely distributed. The Emperor’s guards move through the village tonight, carrying bags of rare black rice as they always have every year since I was a boy. Said to have healing properties, our dying village elder could benefit from even one grain. I step out from my hiding place on the large bushy hill, crossbow drawn. Heavy rain obscures my vision, but I see one guard I can take. Look at that couple. Not to know enough. They’re at the point. Where they’re nothing but. John Grey is ...

N literature clandestinely distributed. Q&A with SB Stokes. August 31, 2014. By Jeff Von Ward. A History of Broken Love Things. By SB Stokes is the author’s debut collection of poetry, an expansive and regenerative look at identity through the tumbled stones of broken relationships. I recently had the opportunity to speak with the poet following a string of successful Bay Area events and readings. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our discussion. T hat must have been in the early nineties?
