@StephenKing I worked for the Grammy-nominated producer of that song, Chef Steve of Cake Cafe in New Orleans. That song is forever my doorway to all of the best memories I have of working in his kitchen. Pure magic.

To my Astoria and Oregon Coast peeps: I’m doing a book-release event for The Native Who Never Left next Sunday and if you’re free and feeling it you should come on out!

@brandenburgdm Episode one was good enough to keep me going. What a challenge nowadays: to do genre tv fresh when there’s so much being made. Okay, go ahead and Twist my Metal then!!!🤘🏽

[Cliffponca @cliffponca]

@canisrufus44 Right on! Hopefully there’s some moments, people, stories, realities you recognize in there. Thanks for going on the journey, bro!🪶

[Cliffponca @cliffponca]

My book’s traveling all over the country and world -maybe it’ll be coming your way next! Get yourself a copy!🪶

A poem written upon Sinéad O’Connor’s passing.🔥

[Cliffponca @cliffponca]

Watched MEN and liked so much about it -the set up, mood, direction, music- but can’t say I was satisfied with where it all eventually went. The ending was wild, if not immediately understandable, or what I as a viewer wanted. 2 1/2 out of 4 smiling severed heads.🍿

[Cliffponca @cliffponca]

A poem I wrote about horror movies and young art dreams.👹

[Cliffponca @cliffponca]
