So, I finally pry some time loose to thank all four of you for commenting and enjoying. I appreciate the feedback much more than my slow response would indicate. Yes, the knowing eye and the surreal atmosphere and gaze. If he had a ukelele it would surely have green strings – probably in ther dayglo green that is in safety vests. At any rate thanks again.

Qarrtsiluni (2005-2013) was a groundbreaking online literary magazine, one of the first to fully exploit blog software. Though we never quite realized our dream of creating a print-on-demand option for each issue, being online does mean that our back issues remain accessible indefinitely, so there's that. And we published some damn fine stuff — check it out.

Oh, I like this!
oh this is marvelous! that acid surreal blue, that knowing eye poised on the green, and the edge of shadow…
Striking. And the color– acid surreal is exactly right.
I’m expecting Frog to take out a little Carolina-blue ukulele and strum the unexpectedly green strings.
