Ink filler
In the recent years
filler is a cell
you put on the chip
filler is a thing
to maintain
the continuities of time or space
I forget the soft plastic
capillary that puts the blood
into the pen
Pipette
Burette

Poet hunt
I have started reading Bob Hicok's poetry book Words for empty and words for full.
His interview at Smartish Pace introduced me to more poets - Maureen Seaton. Tess Gallagher. Artaud. Bill Knott. Rodney Jones. Frank O'Hara. Ai. Szymborska. Amy Gerstler
Gustaf Sobin - lyric development of poem
C K williams - long line
Kelli Russell Agodon - how influenced by Olena Kalytiak Davis, Naomi Shihab Nye, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Martha Silano, Susan Rich
William Bronk
From Knotts interview to Carol Ann Duffy

Both genres
I am reading The Art of Nonfiction by Ayn Rand. I see that she has also written The art of fiction.
Yesterday I started reading Now write! Nonfiction. In the introduction, there is a mention of Now write fiction by the same author.
As of now, they seem like two opposite points. May be the state of righting both is the final Nirvana state of writerhood.

Scurrying lizards
Lizards of southwest
On the hike, I found 3 lizards and I was reminded of a rare lizard we saw as kids. It was called ' pala binde' in Telugu. The words translate to milk pitcher. It looked cream light in color. It didnt have cringe looks like the other lizards.
The Short horned lizards have a wider center breaking our lizard narrow expectations.
Field
Once in a while, funny titles come up.
The Field guide to fields
The spelling of field is unsoothing compared to its meaning.

Fauna by month
The view from lazy point
The conservation ethos is deeply present in each chapter.
Atrazine interferring with Amphibians.
Nurse shark
daffodils by April and red birds playing Prima Donna with their songs - 'It aint spring till I sing'. If these things signal spring, and thinking of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, spring stops being a season, it becomes a status signal.
When I came across Witness for Nature, with its massive 634 pages, I felt disappointed that I couldnt take it up for reading.
Parrotfish and coral reef

All those things
According to Simmel , all things not assimilated oppress us.
Reading of diyas, as Easter mugs,in Theories of things chapter of Stuff by Daniel Miller, I cannot recall any daily objects that have events on them as prevalent in US.
Relationships of things
Some are in pairs like the mortar and pestle.
The author studied pottery in India to understand how it sustains different forms for same function. Looking at the pictures of pots in Artefacts as Categories, I am reminded of tall pots about 4 ft high that were used to store grains.

Like a conversation
Half empty
Jacket art by Mark Matcho reveals that alls not well with the happy-go-lucky bunnies and the man rowing down the water about to take a plunge.
