#poetry is all about the #power of the tongue. If I seem out of line, it's hard to think straight when I see you. Like the #alphabet you are A to Z and you've got my number. Even a cold shower cannot keep my #lust in check. Wish we had met in the #nineties when three was company. I'm a #pig who wants to make some #bacon with you.

I've been watching Magic. The Gathering videos on Youtube sometimes. I haven't played the game in years, and for various reasons I don't really feel the need to play other than maybe some kitchen-table Magic - though I don't want to buy any new cards either.

I did play quite a bit back in the day. This was from mid-to-late Nineties, mostly. I'll tell an anecdote of my only tournament win.

They don't make art like that anymore, now do they?

You wanna know what the nineties were like? Okay. Here's 1995.

Hands up if you got a penpal in Primary school? I ended up with two, and I’m still in contact with them to this day! That’s around 37 years of writing to, and now messaging, each other. Another joy that children now won’t experience. #snailmail #penpals #letters #eighties #nineties

I found this in a little box tonight — an early logo of mine for Sensations in Grand Forks, North Dakota, back when the world was much smokier. In retrospect, I wish I had used a different yet complementary typeface for the second line, but it did the job.

I'm doing a musical trip down memory lane today, listening to some 90's music, and suddenly a 2Unlimited song hits me like a ton of bricks...

I don't usually listen to lyrics, most aren't worth the effort anyway, but listening to "Where are you now" I get reminded of a past love. Or better: the past love of my life. When she left, almost 13 years ago, my world came crashing down and I don't think I've ever completely recovered from that blow.

Where are you now? Do you think of us?
Do you think that it was worth it?
Where are you now? Are you alone?
Should I hope that you are waiting?

Damn, I think I need a drink now...

Op zo’n tv-toestel keek ik in de jaren 90 naar de matchen van Kim Clijsters en Justine Henin. Zwart-wit en zo klein dat ik de ballen amper zag. Maar spannend was het ook toen al. Ik denk dat ik er vier zenders deftig mee kon ontvangen.
