6:47 a.m., nursing a cold cup of coffee and pondering the things of God and the ways of man, the blessed and the diabolical, this early-morning thinktank session kicking out the jams in my head as i come to conclusions about conclusions and even more questions to be asked, once again caught up in a … Continue reading “Cloudburst”

“Que Sera, Sera”
pink and blue hues paint the sky as i rise today, sun slowly creeping from its nighttime hiding place and dawning upon a new day that i must face, not knowing what today holds but knowing who holds today, faith in action as i move forward and take it as it comes and commit myself … Continue reading “Que Sera, Sera”
“Living Room”
angry furniture leers at me from across the living room, animated, seemingly, with some vile apprehension at just the sight of me and i just sit here and try my best not to provoke any reaction or cause too much of a problem which seems totally illogical in a way but hey it is what … Continue reading “Living Room”
“Savior”
i am nobody's savior, a mind-freeing conclusion i've been forced to come to by the harsh realities of life in this world, people struggling all around me, trying to keep their heads above water and all i can do is shout words of encouragement from the shore, hoping they figure it all out and somehow … Continue reading “Savior”
“Full Steam Ahead”
up and at 'em, eyes open and feet hit the floor as i'm catapulted forth into a new day of fighting the dark beast and hoping for the best, no looking back, only full steam ahead as the future unfolds before me, so many things that could go wrong or right, i guess i'll just … Continue reading “Full Steam Ahead”
“Tis The Season”
hoping for the best but secretly expecting the worst, i sit here, a tenth degree black belt in negativity, and my cynical mind does what it does when i'm in the kind of mood i'm in, beset by dark clouds and gloom even in this festive season filled with family and fun, gift giving and … Continue reading “Tis The Season”
“Quick Glance”
driving along and i catch a sideways glance from my father and i wonder if he can hear what i'm thinking and if that's the reason for the look or if i'm altogether wrong and off in my perception and there's nothing going on at all, the damnable thing i have no way of knowing … Continue reading “Quick Glance”
“Looking Back”
not the same person i was twenty years ago, i look back across the years and wonder just where the exuberance of youth has gone and if i can ever get it back, just a little, not looking for a fountain of youth just wondering at how much a person can change under the right … Continue reading “Looking Back”
“Automaton”
the feeling of unfeeling, detached from the normal order of things and numb to most everything, here i find myself in a state of blank disinterest in just about everything that would otherwise move me in some way, doing what i do out of habit more than anything else, an automaton going about his business … Continue reading “Automaton”
“Blank Page”
as i open my eyes on a new day i turn the page in the book of my life and prepare to write the next chapter, wondering will it be comedy or tragedy or some other kind of thing yet to be decided, the blank page staring back at me just waiting for me to … Continue reading “Blank Page”
