Please hire me to be your town sorcerer. During a storm, I can yell back after every thunderclap. I can sit on an old barn and cry about the beauty of the moon. I can gaze into worm holes with a miniature telescope. I can hand-sew tiny witch hats for the local wildlife.

All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a raging snowstorm, and Agatha Christie novel, a crackling fire, a kettle on the stove, and a basket of emotional support pastries.

Podsnappery [pod-SNAP-uh-ree] (n.) -An attitude of complacency, smug self-satisfaction, and a lack of interest in the affairs of others, coupled with a refusal to recognize unpleasant facts. Used in a haiku: “Eyes closed to the world, Podsnappery shields the truth Ignorance feels safe.”

I share "Living the Dream", which is inspired by a world I was born into that just plain disappeared before my eyes. One of my favorites in the series of dark reflections, in spite of being technically very hard to compose and paint, at least for me:) Where is the kitty?

David Truzzi-Franconi. East End. 1970s. “While I was working in the City of London as an heraldic artist & calligrapher, I discovered on my lunchtime walks that a few paces from the bustle of Bishopsgate led me to another world.”
