Metaphor for alcoholism.

When affection presents itself, not everyone is ready. But WHAT DO THE BIRDS WANT? Alfred Hitchcock used similar bird-terror on Tippi Hedren in The Birds, so it’s probably art.

Figure skating for sissies.



The miracle of life. In second grade, my teacher asked us to go home and ask our parents whether the chicken or the egg came first. The next day, we sat in a circle and reported our answer, one after another. “Egg.” “Egg!” “Chicken.” Then me: “My dad says that, evolution—happened?” Teach the controversy!

ABOUT

We are Blunderbuss Magazine, a web magazine of arts, culture, and politics, an ordnance of fire and improvisation. What ties together these essays, stories, poems, photographs, comics, and other bits of aesthetic shrapnel is a common attitude of visceral humanism. We aim for earnest noise. We want to splash in the mud of lived experience, to battle for a radical empathy, and to provide a megaphone to howling assertions of human subjectivity.
