“There are several quintessential moments in a man’s life: losing his virginity, getting married, becoming a father, and having the right girl smile at you.” – Kirby, St. Elmo’s Fire

The Colour of Light

this is a tender zine about love and light. enjoy:::

everything that’s wrong with my body

this zine is a raw look at all the many and glaring or subtle defects with my body. all of them:::

and a special collaboration with Katie McKay, Molly Willows and Krissy Rae Finley…

Done Did It

Krissy and Katie draw, Katie, Molly and i (dr. power) write poems and Molly writes a short story in this very special zine. this one totally rocks. thanks girls, i’m really proud of our team up. fore real:::

thanks! see you at the zine fair tomorrow!!

i forgive you.i pardon your transgressions.
i’m sorry.myself.my actions define me.
i strive

this is the night. this is the day. the book of life.

this is who i am now.

i did it again, i made another string picture. i call them string pictures but no one knows what i’m talking about because they’re made of wool. and glue. heather used to live here and she gave me a bunch of wool and i’m grateful. please and thank you heather.

i wanted to ruminate on the medium man, and so i came up with this. but no one can really tell what it is. making string pictures is hard! it’s a sheep eating some grass and a woman is knitting a sweater out of it, the sheep. the woman is being held from behind – by a big bad wolf. what does it mean? where does wool come from and who makes it and who uses it and what is it used for or has been used for. no one can really sees it unless i explain it to them. i’m going to make another one soon.

***NOT FOR CHILDREN***

i wish i had a puss and boots to look after me.
then i’d have a best friend forever.
and i would be a prince.

transgression or stupid?

appearing live – one night only: dr. power — me — the new deference

and i made the poster

see you tonight…

do you/i know how sometimes when i’m/you’re doing something really exciting

i/you speak to m/y/ourself talking to a friend or someone i’/you’re/m familiar with

and i/you’ll tell them what’s was happening and what it means to you/me

well you/i’‘ve got to say it’s pretty exciting around here and right now i’m/you’re

thinking talking to me/you. that’s because you’re/i’m such a sweetie..

1. indoor plumbing is a real luxury
2. 
   

i wash my pubic hair with shampoo so that i can be clean.

but i’m not before and i won’t be afterwards. not for very long anyways.

i like to wash my hands but not when the water is cold. it doesn’t feel as sanitizing.

i bite my nails all the time and i don’t know what i look like when i’m doing it.

i like to bite them in the shower after a little bit they’re softer and better that way.

chickens and birds eat pebbles to digest and i’ve got pieces of nail inside of me.

i believe in germs. they’re real. i’ve seen them. and they’re everywhere.

they make me sick maybe and make my stomach hurt or i’ll get a headache.

i lie down and go to sleep. i’ll feel better in the morning. or maybe two days later.

i’m not a germ what are you talking about? i know where my food comes from.

i prefer scented soap but something masculine and musky.

not just any soap will do.

i shower often. i really enjoy the warmth and touching myself.

i wash my whole body from head to toe. everywhere all over me.

i shampoo with conditioner and i have two luffas.

i wash my pubic hair but it doesn’t change much.

it’s just as dark and corse as ever growing and growing out of me.

i keep my pubes in my pants and you should too or everyone will look at them.

i use a bathmat to keep safe because i don’t like to fall down.

i look both ways before i cross the street. i never get hurt at all.

i just said a prayer and it was for you. good luck. you made it.

i/you surf the internet to read look at things often quickly

you/i don’t remember what you/i looked at..
