Hey, thanks for coming by.  Ease around the place and see what’s up.

I’m happy to have new music.  Feels good to be back in the ring (the boxing ring?  circus ring?  bathtub ring?).  I hope to be out a bit more this year singing and playing.  Come by if you can.  

In a season of bailouts and losses, I am thinking about that dish by the cash register at the restaurant.  ”Need a penny, take one. Have a penny? Leave it.” It’s a beautiful world at the penny level!  I have been inspired lately and encouraged by lots of artists, friends, and folks who attend to their gifts. It’s remarkable, really, to hear songs that reveal rather than cover up, poems that clarify and sharpen our quandaries and questions, artists who commune with their growing edges. They fill up the dish for me.  It’s good to try and return something.
