Quint-jess-ence: At this moment
http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2009/08/at-this-moment.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Sunday, August 16, 2009. At this moment, I am thinking about the importance and the difficulty of being in the present. A good way to check yourself out of the past or the future or wherever you typically dwell is to finish the sentence "At this moment." Repeat this as many times as it takes to be exactly where you are, because only when we are still are we still moving into another intensity (ref. Eliot). At this moment, I am calling you back.

The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Monday, December 28, 2009. On the Infinite Superiority of Cats to Dogs. Strange, very strange. A panicked mental checklist: empty house, parents and sister not due back for hours, doors locked, windows locked, shit- the chimney! What a crazy dog! December 29, 2009 at 9:55 PM.

http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Saturday, June 27, 2009. Charred-purple skies spread,. Lit by low glowing lamp-stars. Saturday, June 13, 2009. Atlantis by W. H. Auden. Being set on the idea. Of getting to Atlantis,. You have discovered of course. Only the Ship of Fools is. Making the voyage this year,. As gales of abnormal force. Are predicted, and that you. Must therefore be ready to. To pass for one of The Boys,. At least appearing to love. Hard liquor, horseplay and noise.

Quint-jess-ence: September 2009
http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Wednesday, September 9, 2009. Meditation While Sun-bathing in Northern Idaho. It is inevitable,. As weather changes,. As time passes,. That the Great Sun. Will be eclipsed by a cloud. And for a time,. Its warmth and light. Grow cold and dim. We, slaves to comfort and convenience,. Scramble for blankets, fireplaces, and flashlights. To replace what we believe is gone. Of our life source. But it is inevitable, with. The turning of the earth,.

Quint-jess-ence: October 2009
http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Sunday, October 11, 2009. It's my four day weekend, so I have real time to write again, but don't get your hopes too high devoted readers- there likely won't be another entry until November 1, when rehearsals and performances for Bald Soprano end and free time returns. Until then, I'll share my thoughts on the buzz about the Nobel Peace Prize before the media finds something else to bash on. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Quint-jess-ence: April 2009
http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. And my very life lived in my voice. My very wise sister sometimes speaks with the voice of God. She/He told me where I am and where I must go. I am in a dark room sitting at a desk,. Of course of course I am trying to write. But my paper is crumpled and refuses to be smoothed. And my ink invisible;. My pen has a feather, but I can't fly with it. I am worse than Icarus. Breaks in and throws a javelin (a javelin!

Quint-jess-ence: Ghost Writer
http://quintjessence.blogspot.com/2010/03/ghost-writer.html
The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Thursday, March 11, 2010. Of course, my first play, working title Ghost Writer. Would have to be about writer's block. But how delightful that I broke through right in step with my main character. Six pages of the first draft completed, and ready for auditions tonight. Will be performed at the Westmont Fringe Festival April 20-24. Insider's trivia: the two characters, Sophie and Cleo, are named after my first two cats. View my complete profile.

The pure, highly concentrated, most typical essence of Jessie. Monday, November 9, 2009. And you are immersed in it. Tomorrow cannot be held; Yesterday is the vapor of memory. And once we have grasped what it is to cling to the present, then we must be ready to unclench our fist and let it go again at any moment. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Jess in Quint-jess-ence.
