Maasai Culture
The Maasai (also spelt Masai) were once the dominant peoples of the plains of East Africa. Now they are restricted to portions of southern Kenya and Tanzania. There are about 300,000 to 380,000 Maasai. They speak a variant of the Maa language which is spoken by several tribal groups in Kenya and Tanzania with about a million speakers in total. The Maasai are famous for their fearlessness as...
The Spice Of Life: Erotic Body Casts
The art of Jamie McCartney begs the question- where is the dividing line between pornography and erotic art? McCartney doesn’t make the answer easy because he depicts the erotic world without the restraint normally exhibited by serious artists. He goes where no other artist normally goes when he depicts erect penises, for example and then challenges us to see them as objects of beauty. It...

The Quarrel
The word I spoke in anger weighs less than a parsley seed, but a road runs through it that leads to my grave, that bought-and-paid-for lot on a salt-sprayed hill in Truro where the scrub pines overlook the bay. Half-way I’m dead enough, strayed from my own nature and my fierce hold on life. If I could cry, I’d cry, but I’m too old to be anybody’s child....

Her Kind
I have gone out, a possessed witch, haunting the black air, braver at night; dreaming evil, I have done my hitch over the plain houses, light by light: lonely thing, twelve-fingered, out of mind. A woman like that is not a woman, quite. I have been her kind. I have found the warm caves in the woods, filled them with skillets, carvings, shelves, closets, silks, innumerable goods; fixed...

Lewis and Clark. Stop celebrating. They don't... →
sigh.. “…They discovered new land so the United States could grow into a great nation. Lewis and Clark, it’s claimed, opened the West and launched the American empire.” Except they didn’t. “If Lewis and Clark had died on the trail, it wouldn’t have mattered a bit,” says Notre Dame University historian Thomas Slaughter, author of the forthcoming
