My Daughter’s Wedding

Since I put more work into writing this than I did most other stuff, I am putting it here.

I don’t know how the hell I thought those first lines were in iambic pentameter. They aren’t.

I was quite nervous and so I lost my notes delivering the whole thing from memory – hence the places I have queried what I said.

Prayer

I wrote this on an iPad in a moment of self reflection about thirty years after my father’s death.

Polish Delicatessens

This was an essay I wrote on an iPad in a hotel lobby in Fujairah while waiting to pick up Ania from a photography assignment.

Life View

I recall the event I’m describing was at the party after the twins were christened, so I must have written this in Summer 2010.
