cigar-tin story #156, and juicy (ra-tat-tat-tat)

• cigar-tin story #156  • contains the story "Blindekuh"  • this story was originally published in subTerrain Magazine, way back in 2004, which might as well be another lifetime  • it's a story about the piling nature of defeat – the way it covers you, by opaque degrees  • this story reappears in my new book, Dark All Day

• juicy (ra-tat-tat-tat)  • mixed media on cradled wood panel  • 8 x 10 inches  • an envelope with original story ("Juicy") attached to the back  • a recording on this story is on Soundcloud, under cigar-tin stories  • it's about living in the worst apartment building in the world
