These folks I know, best in class; hell, some I don’t really know that well, Best in class. All walks, backgrounds, stories, struggles, talents, wins, Wonder, is it any wonder, often I wonder, how did I get here? Wonder if I can be Best in class. This foundation laid, we slayed, stayed together over time …

Questions of the Cosmos
These questions, they roar into my brain, Maybe sneak in sometimes, There are big questions and little questions, and many mostly out of my control.
Stuck
Stuck in the funk, far from drunk, Every turn, room, something to do, behind, haven’t done, need to do, Walls closing in, inside out, no doubt it’s in my head, sense of dread, It’s all got me stuck, stalled out, gotta get outta stuck, Out I go, unstuck, one step at a time.
An Except from Mary L. Trump Writing
Published via X (formerly called Twitter), 4/29/2024 Mary Trump is a niece of former president Donald Trump. “I am so tired of him. 1/ I am tired of his face. I am tired of his style of speech. I am so tired of his lies. I am tired of his bluster, his narcissism. I am …
Lull
In the lull, dulled out, Spark missing, no kissing, Never enough, missing tough, Rolling over again and again, no end, must bend, To will, would that I could do, CAN do, Just the next right thing, Way out of the lull, wade out, one step at a time in the right direction, slog? Fine, One …
Hung On Love
Night to day, rough transition, too early thoughts, dark, brooding, Day of rest and rejuvenation hoped, fleeting in an instant, Each thing I want, slipping away, left standing in the darkened room, ashen bits dripping down, sullen, Suddenly feeling, giving into what is, Days of oppressive heat, Chores left undone, waiting, Insistent, argumentative children, Struggle …
Odd Struggles
Coming off an oddly busy week, shuttle services, kids care, self-care to the fore; Oddly enough, coping still, fits of unexplained struggle, low-grade anxiety, Odd feeling, something like hunkering down in a shack, everything darkened, odd struggle, odd struggle indeed.
Just Up The Road…GOOD
A few miles north from where I live, seen on an east trail walk and historical house tour, Filoli. This house and estate build and established about 100 years ago by Bay Area business man William Bourn. The property is named Filoli, after William Bourn's credo: "Fight for a just cause; Love your fellow man; Live a …
As We Go
Can’t predict, offer that, as we go, Kids situation, attitudes, volunteer work, people, back out, people get sick, Or get sideways, satisfaction otherwise, uncertain, uncertain, Can you check my back door, can you make sure the windows closed, can you bring my stuffies, on and on…? Yes, on and on. As we go, best to …
Owning It
My struggles, My challenges, My short-comings, I try real hard to be my own shepherd, to own my sh*t, Working to be better, Reflective, Open to coaching and feedback, I’m also aware of my wins, my strengths, the uniquely positive effect I can have somehow, A super-power cloaked in neurosis. Acceptance. Improvement. Commitment. GOOD.
