Every day has an elementary element, learning boring things that apply way later. Try diving from a crowded dock into a tumultuous ocean. Measure the proportion of possibilities, swallow risk like the water you tread. Driving upwards ambition for consideration, watching others swing for fears. Stability aches in resting places and stagnation settles in like … Continue reading »

Insatiable dream
Absorb to understand, plan to fall to crawl then stand maybe not perfect but preferable. In proximity we level up though opportunity vests heavier on one the other hurls fun at titles meant to elevate some to better earnings while work raises the same through relentless steps to arrive tired. We share the elevator down. … Continue reading »
The mountain flattens upon approach
The farther from the fear overcome the more it diminishes in fortitude becoming a belittling lesson to the untried. The further the source of blame escapes to time the more it expands to associate its hate. The worst gathers shade around us blocking the best like an eclipse But it exists in a projected collection … Continue reading »
Expecting the other to come
The calm rests in the valleys of our lives between action, response and the chaotic push of opposition. And while the swirl wraps around us always we sleep in the shade when possible and wake to pick ideas from the maelstrom, fight or lose to the strength of others with more experience.

It’s not something I want to keep remembering despite it’s merit for lessons and those who know … Continue reading »
The low stone wall between us
Explore without assumption, the low stone wall crumbling between. Asking questions assumes a direction and drives there. All the while, referencea rotate in place. Understanding everything dissipates thought. Unspooling each thread to find a connection, scaling knowledge to over-see others, still standing on the sinking ground of time, expiring details useless for the future. Not … Continue reading »
Family remedy
We teach children the future of our assumptions, And treat our elders with a reflection of their past, Or our agreement of what that should have settled out to by now, While the youth nods ahead like the bow in the current. Anything accomplished, Invites blame, Hanging in wait of recognition, Forever dangling in spite, … Continue reading »
Emerging from behind eyes
Pain relieves shame when you aspire to build a monument beyond reproach but the reach extends until rest outlives intent and perfect myths shed glory to grow regret again. Hear this dozens enough and it passes through like the common knowledge of another’s opinion. If any more skepticism sets in. Beyond hundreds by then we … Continue reading »
Rainy days
Each day the cold weighs the clouds down to cry on us out of pity to deprive us of bright warmth and the mud collects under the stunted flowers trampled by hail, we will rise when clear and better for it. The morning fog weighs lids clinging to dreams of restless nights fighting to break … Continue reading »
