In the moment I think, wonder, wander in my head, drifting off, In the moment just being, seeking a smidge, smudge of discipline, just enough to nudge me forward, through the day, In the moment, writing it down, this thing, the next thing, anything that comes to mind, comes across the synapses, glimpse into the …
Brakes
Threw on the brakes, had to, stamp the pedal hard. Hardly a thing better to do when you feel yourself rolling out of control, Controlled, immediate stop in order, no borderline question of prudence, you’d be well served to follow suit, But suit yourself to decide what’s best for you, for me I know tie …
Channeling E. E.
Channeling EE Cummings, one of the great poets, writers coming out of America from the last 250 years, Harvard train, never restrained in his creativity, pushing boundary, expression, all lowercase, intentionally. I was listening to writers talk recently, now they waited for the longest time to share their writing, I guess perhaps I’m the same, …
First Things First
I juggle all the time to make first things first, emotional as I am, it ain’t easy, So many things compete for FIRST!, hard to make things second, third, fourth, Forthcoming if I’m to be tho’, there’s a bit less whoa in it these days, As my days tumble forward, horizon seems to be coming …
Bicker & Banter
Bicker and banter, what to say, why oh why do they talk that way? Banter’s not bad, truth be told, fun way to jest and joke, for young and old, But banker turned bicker, I’m not such a fan, truth be told, it makes me kinda mad, Maddening that folks can’t get along, when my …

Gruff
I don’t like solicitation phone calls. I don’t like solicitation emails. I don’t like scammers. All that makes me gruff on the phone. Don’t call me to pitch something, or try to scam me. But if you do, expect gruff. [Disclaimer: I know that’s not the most positive message, but it’s still good. Watch out …
Watching Hockey
End of the week, week so stacked with everything, stacked on top of stacked, Like a busy work week, a thousand emails maybe, strained to get to Zero Inbox, Like a wheel falling of my truck on the way home (!), whaaaaaaat…?!?! Blessed with no injuries or accident otherwise (me or anyone else), Health and …
YES. Take Your Time.
“Viggo Mortensen said: "One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was from a horse master. He told me to go slow to go fast. I think that applies to everything in life. We live as though there aren't enough hours in the day but if we do each thing calmly and carefully …
The Rite Anxiety
More on the topic of anxiety, in particular, my own anxiety, struggles, ups, and downs, nerve, sometimes frayed, emotions, bubbling here, and there, it feels like I’ve had this experience nearly all of my life, though it’s ebb and flowed over the years, the decades, for some reason over these last 10 years, it’s been …
