Surprise! I re-curated a bunch of my earliest, loosest conceptual pieces from back in my tumblr days & put them up on my website. Share & check them out if you like net art, fluxus, or just want a peek into my goofy little brain from 10 years ago.

when my dad really died by SG Huerta 
Collage of typed lines, facebook comments, a Marine's eyes, SG and his dad's headstone, SG reading from Last Stop. 
The poem reads:
In 2018 I wrote a poem entitled when my dad really dies. 
I think about my father's death too much.
If i die, make my silly suicides notes
Thinking of you <3
If I die, my fathers memory will listen-- who?
Sending love you to <3
When my dad really dies, a dad cliche, what you gave me:
Bipolar disorder (semi abstract) and insurmountable grief (full on abstraction)
I'm lying dad(crossed out)
Love you, thinking of and praying with you <3
I wrote more poems.
Poetry and my grief. After a certain point, I'm nor sure that there is a difference.
I need someone to blame-- , but that guy is gone.)
Leaving someonesomeplacesomechild,
I still remember your dad [redacted] about [redacted]
I refuse to be that guy anymore. 
If someone dies by their own hand
Hugs and prayers 
miracle my grandmother called the overdose of 2018 a miracle
