Stepping away from the rat-race for a brief second. I move towards a centered existence without pretense. My weathered heart surviving for another day.

The Throes of Change

In memory of all the librarians that blessed me with their attention. The universe will always smile on them.BookRix GmbH & Co. KG81371 Munich

Thinking Out Loud

I seek to follow the jones' one more time  

Turning 50 allows quiet reflection 

Embarking on a vision quest now

Children smiling as I chase them into tomorrow

Sitting on a quiet porch observing daily life  

The higher-power summons my soul 

 Dealing with persistent demons

 Saturday morning coffee allows illumination

 Dogs cry

 Birds fly

 I die?

Memories of yesterday's heroes inhabit the souls of multi-tasked humans; Sgt Peppers saves the day.

Golden Silence

 I stretch my mind until reality remains  

 Saturday evening rants seem appropriate now

 Humanity's heart moves a kindred soul 

 Pieces of a dream empowers another chosen one

 Caught between death and destruction  

 Wise elders pass on a rite of passage

 Tired eyes imagine a surrealistic pillow  

 Imaginary authors develop a Last Picture Show

 Doves cry

Just Say When

Lasting peace becoming a thing of beauty  

Sleep-walking confuses lost boys

Poor mice search for the rainbow  

The merry-go-round continues

5 O'clock rush hour traffic activates my ptsd  

Holiday cheer?  

2015 becoming a reality for the masses  

Christmas credit hangover?  

Never!

Quiet eyes taking me to a peaceful place; Jimmy Kimmel speaking with a "forked" tongue.  12:30 becoming the "last" call  for all of the lost humans.

Sunrise brings a headache and a cup of joe; Reality bites! 

Lady Luck

A child discovering the joy of being curious  

Adult dreams fade within a rat-race

2015 allows another chance at bliss

Live well  

Laugh often

Love much

Follow your heart?  

Jump!

Pumping iron?  Walking an extremely narrow path while bein politically incorrect.   Screaming for peace; Marching for the notion of a sane society.

I look for the remnants of the "beat" generation within a prison cell.  Gomer Pyle becomes the newest poster child for me, myself, and I.

Children of the corn...

Thinking of a planet out of control; People running around on permanent cruise-control.

The answer?

Unplug!!
