Lyrics Post: “Ghost Rider”
Of RUSH lyrics, I could go on and on. And I do, often enough. Yet another magical song that rocks and soothes and feeds the soul, for me. But first... I happened upon the following comment on a YouTube channel while listening to RUSH via that medium recently. Different song, different person's feedback, but similar …
Scenes From “Stay-cation” 2020
Doing, Playing, Reading, Playing, More Doing, Being Clearing the yard, phase 1. Good read at the DMV, and anywhere really. Building and creativity. Old-school dinosaur chasing person upstairs. Coffee take-out. America. Ride in pick-up.
I’ll Take It
As it comes, I’ll take it. Easy conversation, I’ll take it. Blue sky, cool breeze, I’ll take it. Light sheen of sweat blankets me, I’ll take. Smoke wafting from the barbecue, I’ll take it.

Though still married in title, only a shell remained. The trust and …
