Slide

Warm,
Wet,
Darkness.

Black and White

Just Like the notes on the staff.

Disrepair

christos — Mon, 14 May 2012 16:08:10 +0000

Older electronics
can be taken apart
and repaired
by hand
but
small things seem smaller
to my eyes
and to my fingers
than they used to
and I have to take notes
to remember
where things
are supposed
to go.

Take Off Your Clothes – Behind the Scenes

christos — Fri, 11 May 2012 17:45:35 +0000

Check out what went on behind the scenes at my Toronto look book shoot for the SWAP Team, a social enterprise that organizes clothing shops with a high fashion twist.

Take Off Your Clothes is happening tonight between 6 and 9 PM at the Enoch Turner Schoolhouse at the corner of King and Trinity in Toronto. Admission is $10 in advance and $12 at the door.

Defense

They tell you,
“It gets better,”
but it doesn’t.
There are people out there
who want to hurt you
simply because you’re not
what some book or magazine
told them
you should be.

And you’re always
a breath away from
thinking that
the things they
say are true.

Not because you
want or need to
believe
but because
the oft repeated lies
are taken up
as battle cries
by people
who think
they know
better than you.

And their
shouting
drowns out
everything.

Golden Gate

The sign is ancient
and leached of colour
therefore
the food here
is either
exceptional
or cheap.

Adventure

christos — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 15:04:05 +0000

Next time
the urge
to drive to
a mall
in the suburbs
hits…

Ignore it.

And seek out
adventure
instead.

Rust

christos — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 05:13:10 +0000

Everything fades and crumbles with time,
and some things look better at it
but not me.

Teddy Bear

christos — Mon, 26 Mar 2012 03:05:16 +0000

The years have not been kind but
despite my ragged looks
and my threadbare coat
I could still use a hug
now and again.
