Find the way to reset reset, Fresh start for your mind, body, soul, Sole reason you might think, sink, rest on bottom of the pond, lake, ocean, No notion there’s another way than to stop all the chatter, than insist on the quiet, Find your way to the moment of truth, true to form, when …

Dreams In Motion, Emotion
Last several weeks, (months, years?), vivid dreams crowd into my head, objects, people, rapid motion, I’ve no notion, from whence they come… Emotion pours in, all around, vivid, visceral, all I can feel, feel it all , every moment, decades seeped in, now drip out. Whatever the case, cause, let it be so, my so, …
Piecemeal Calm
This I seek, What say you? Just enough certainty and ease of mind and a day without angst; so hard to find, create, maintain. So how in the dark, a little warmth, just enough clarity that a little calm begins, the pour of warmth inside helps, And I realize again and accept again this notion …
Hard
Hard to be all that, all the time, Hard line, tow it, hope you have enough inside, Hard to know if you can, ‘til you try, hard work for sure, Every day without a break, hard to hold steady, but what other way when life is hard, One way, hard work, the only way.

My constant companion some 50 years on now, Cut-down, battled, then some armistice, After a time wrestled fiercely again, waylaid, then an uneasy détente, Overall an ebb, flow, and do it again, comes to truce, seeking solace, a bit of peace, please, a bit of peace. Changed it up the other early morning, in the …
Instant Devastation
One never knows, not the hour nor the day, when the life you know might be taken from you in an instant. We work hard to create and maintain a baseline of stability, predictability, and comfort. War on American soil, not likely; Gaza, Sudan, Ukraine, millions suffering violence and bleak, hopeless living conditions, so difficult, …
Lost In A Moment
Lost in a moment, everything fine, then gone, Fire sweeps in, run for your life, consumed inferno, Voila, Then nothing but ash, nothing but ash. [Santa Ana Fires 2025]
Up, Waiting
Up waiting, waiting for what? The next shoe to drop, For her to ease up, The bill to come due, The kid to throw-up, The expectation to be lowered, The cough to subside, The lights to go out, The skin to tremble, mmm, The skin to tremble.
Ideally, Really
Ideally and really, sometimes align, most fine when they do, magic, But more times than not, not so the case, ideally disappears like vapor on a windy day, That is to say, really being serious, really sure something is gonna come up the blows up the norm, expectation, no reason to think otherwise really, Then …
Movie Feelings
Sometimes movies, the themes, the words the actions speak, sometimes they give us the parallels that help us explain things, to ourselves, if no one else. Recalling an early scene in the movie Top Gun. Navy fighter pilots on patrol over the Indian Ocean, engaged suddenly by Soviet MiGs, one American pilot somehow cracks after …
