I withdraw my toe from the tepid pool Expanding circles of disturbance my legacy Marring the tranquil Tarnishing the calm Regrets draw me back Ripples fade to naught Declining proof of my fallacy I see… How do you?

I lay at night with a hunger Not a lust so typical at my age Not a dream of fortunes and objects Not a taste of things to come But a craving for abstinence A… Yesterdays Doggy Bag

3am scrolls by In this modern time no second hands turn No ticking away of passing moments Only in my mind Otherwise only digital displays count Cold, clinical. Perfect seconds 3am scrolls by. Surrounded by… and Again

A battle wages deep within The country torn apart A secret theat against the king To hiding he departs Protected by a few good men Their legend serves them well Opponents cringe and writhe with… The Three Wasn’t Here’s

Are we landmarks and milestones in the journey of life Momentary references on each journeyed track Significant in the moment – as we’re guiding the way Then forgotten? Do they never look back? Will they remember my markings as they walk other roads? Be homesick for the places they’ve passed Am I little more than… Landmarks

How often do we lie to ourselves?
How often do we lie to ourselves that we’re not lying to ourselves?

Evolution, Survival of the fittest Traits gained, skills acquired Lives forsaken, adaptation admired Progress has its costs. The world changes Mountains form, valleys forged Temperatures surge and fall Progress has its costs.

Not great, but my head is still in bits. Bethany came home today, bright and sparkly like a dry cleaned hyperactive bunny rabbit. Loaded on painkillers of course 😛

Beth was hit by a car today, she broke the windshield with her head, and seems to have stopped the car with everything else. She’s doing okay, broken arm, lost a lot of hair, more bruises than the inventor of the automatic tennis ball server and more cuts than the guy who tested the first vibrating razor.

As ever her chin is up, her smile remains and she’s chuckling at every lame attempt of wit dad throws in the air.

More to come tomorrow
