Everything Is All Very Nice

writing from elysian’s old days

Our dear friends at Clockshop, in recognition of my years of service sporadically making delicious staff lunches and woefully undercharging to cook for their various fundraisers, published a slender but poignant volume of little gems from elysian’s old PR emails. Everything Is All Very Nice is available for ordering HERE.

This is not in the book:

9.22.15

it is so peaceful here 

on kitchen earth today

we have staff haiku time

though none of us knows

the proper measure:

 

over two days two quarts

of yogurt become one—

future lebneh

 

then things go south

less haiku more telegram

 

knife’s edge is sharp

that’s no carrot goddammit

that’s my fingertip send first aid kit
