Z. Endspec #1:

Endspec (1988-1994)

Premonition in the bath

Traffic inconvenience

In anticipation of simple pleasures

Public spectacle

Dreams of old age

Foreshadowing of the end

Filling in the blank after the dash

Dream sequence (re. holographic skull) 

Of Disney eschatology

Potential job loss in sobering perspective

A chastening from the dreaming

OPEN:

Endspec (1996-1999)

Gleanings from an otherwise wasted day

Near miss

Of the unforgettable

In hurtling towards a death star

Late night with Phil Ochs

Of coming to rest

Feeling the ground shudder

An instant of confusion

A most vulnerable moment 

Places of rest or of mortal dread?

OPEN:

Endspec (2000—2004)

A Blessed sense of peace?

Browsing obituaries

Apparitions of crows

Weighing the actuarial odds

A grim postcard from Switzerland

Headlong through Bardo

Of the comfort of a hidden nest

Of  a heroic challenge at 52

Timely advice from a  Hare Krishna pamphlet

Heavenly exits

Of what came before the Slurpee

OPEN:

Endspec (2004-2005) 

Worse than death?

Desirable modes of exit?

In waiting for the barbarians

Of the lumpy and leaky

First signs of spring at Lefarge Lake

Beware the howler in future dreams

The Grim Reaper’s bell curve

Of prospective scatterings 

OPEN:

👍🏼 😐 😬 🥱 👎 💩
