Another pop cultural fantastic bestiary Sunday. Anybody remember the movie Avatar? Not the kung-fu fantasy one, the tribal sci-fi one. The James Cameron’s Avatar as it was marketed. I still remember it being the movie that REALLY set the standard for what CGI technology can do cinematically, making this ...

Twisting the sunset key, we set the darkness free.

Poetry number 2: Sunout:
Til’ sunset we make
A scene to set a void ablaze. Unemployed power on the aftertaste.
Til’ sunset we take
The primal cant to ring about. Alibied beuty for ears aloud.
Til’ sunset we shake
For hundreds of days of darkness sake. Shake and shake til ...
