The Street Lit Blog

Since I've moved to Missoula, the Street Lit authors in Austin have moved to a new site at http://streetlitauthors.org/, run by the awesome Tony Nuñez and Phil Force. 

Below you'll find Street Lit news posts from my Austin years with the group, and a selection of the creative works of the
 Street Lit Authors Club. I'll be posting new works from the Missoula folks sooner than later, so keep an eye on us. We've got great things in the works.

Comments are encouraged, and don't forget to share with your friends on Facebook & Twitter! Please consider a financial donation as well--your contributions keep the words (and the coffee) flowing!

Liberty memories

Liberty memories
      by Anonymous

It was so big. A giant peace symbol on the side of the ship. (The bottom leg was missing, so it was more of a Mercedes symbol.)

Now I knew why the U.S.S. Forrestal side cleaners got their liberty cancelled and had to return to the ship in Barcelona. They had scrubbed a mile high peace sign on the seaward hull where nobody would see it. The tide had turned, and the seaward side of the ship was now the shoreward side. Everybody saw it then!

Barcelona is too nice a port to have a short liberty at. I got to buy a guitar there, anyway, and met a very nice prostitute who called me a cab and told the cabbie not to rip me off and even paid the fare, and I never even used her services!
