I started this when I lived in Brooklyn and struggled for grace in a city that grants moments of beauty and ugliness breathtakingly close to one another. Now I live in a place where things are a different kind of ugly and the beauty is pedestrian. I struggle with that.

There's a mini, decorative one of these down the street from my house. In the wind, it click clack rattles metallically and always surprises me, even though I've been walking past it for nearly two years.
this one pumps the stock tank on a friend's ranch in Kansas. It is the only form of power that is not animal or human. I spent a great week there taking care of the 150 year old buildings and learning how to cook on a hundred-year-old wood stove. Awesome!
