All I want is a pony and to be
twelve again, and this time when my dad buys
me the pony that I want so badly
he’ll buy a pony that doesn’t bite, or if
the pony bites, this time my older
sister will have a pony too, and she
will love to ride and love
to help me teach
the pony not to bite, and this time I’ll
be brave enough instead of giving up
and crying, crying, crying
and this time, she and I will open gates
and canter, canter, canter
over fields and country lanes. This time
Dad won’t say he doesn’t have the time
for this – a whiny daughter he’d hoped
would manage better,
but he won’t sell
the pony, this time, and this time I will learn
to ride.

The event was held at St Peter’s Court House Theatre in St Peter’s, PEI.
Comedian Fraser MacCallum from the Island Stand-up Comedy Troupe, as well as Hugh MacDonald, the current P.E.I. poet laureate, Island-based poet and writer Deirdre Kessler with Terri Lukacko, an old-time music fiddler from Albany, N.Y., and Sue Dilley, a mandolin, accordion and ukulele performer/singer from Tasmania, Australia. All were part of day 3 in the festival.
Victoria’s first literary festival (July 16-18) was exciting and excellent in PEI’s lovely village of Victoria by the sea.
The Poet Laureate’s Summit was held in Halifax July 14-16. The Summit featured 10 of Canada’s 16 Poets Laureate and combined the spoken word with some amazing jazz. It was an amazing experience.
Overhaul…
New face…
Am I bleeding yet?








Pictured above is a 1947 Shure Model 55 I scored on Ebay for $60. It had no cartridge in it, but I fixed that with a Yamaha MZ203 cartridge I had kicking around. It took some time to get the pacement right so that the polar patern worked, but it's now my live mic of choice.
I have entrirely too much time on my hands.
