Menopausal Madness
You have no idea how chaotic and stressful my life has been in the last several weeks
I’m living with a passive aggressive nutjob
no more smiles or laughter
those days are over
one second she’s quiet, the next she’s crying
a minute later were having a normal conversation, the next she begins an argument
not just any argument,
screaming at the top of her lungs
something as petty as why the garbage wasn’t thrown out,
or why is there 20 dollars missing out of her wallet
clearly she forgets that she has numerous wallets throughout many different...

frigid consumption
is it fair to call anything a gift? as though it may seem so-though it could potentially be snatched away if ever "given"(apart from simply living)? the list goes on for days....
that's primarily the point; that's why some prefer detachment over advertised fantastics; because night ultimately rules the day, even when the sun shines, and the makings of an art gallery display;
"reality" is too much of a brick through the windows that-as they say "leads to the soul"- to even dare have "wildest of...

HALFWAY THERE (II) (2nd longer revision of original poem; 1-29-1997, East jetty of Flagship Hotel Pier, Galveston, TX)
i took a trolly
down to the beach
at the end of it s line
walked out to
the end of a jetty
looked out over
this vast gulf of mexicos
seemingly endless horizon
and longingly
thought to myself
with a heavy inner sigh
of momentary hopeful relief
from what little s now left of me
here at this point
of my life s present
long challenging
ongoing journey
in all it s worn...

bottlecap: forbidden conversations
I'm probably going to take a beating
sharing these liquor saturated sentiments
always provided I don't wake up & chicken out
reflect & regret ever penning them
locking them in the absolutely not vault
there's a few in there...never coming up for air
but what the hell...
a bit of bottled attitude & my mind tends...to move
into some darkened cobwebby corners
touching things that slither into realms of taboo
so...let's give it a shot & kick this off
setting aside any religious beliefs
looking purely at basic humanity ...

human interaction expectations(especially in intimate relationships)....especially as an introvert
advance idealizations with the coming years; some things change-some things never will.... soul searching-an admiring trait that goes but so far depending on the who you are....
the human species altogether are nothing less than complicated; and with time.... appears to more or less grow more impatient with interactions that are face to face(at least for myself)....
trying to understand others/or more or less actually understanding others-an admiring trait to have or work at....

The Faceless - Flash Horror
I had to leave. The atmosphere at home was radioactive. I could feel my flesh melt, and my hair fall out. I left at night with no money. I had the clothes on my skin, a raincoat, a lighter, a solitary cigarette, and for some reason, a note pad.
My father told me to write it down, get it out of my head. Write it down. Write what down? Write the babble, the paranoia, the fear, the hatred of the capitalist system, the pain of falling in love with people who needed more than a sense of humor to form a relationship, write it down, and then forget about it....

When It’s Beyond Fainting Spells (Seizures)
This has always been my number one concern for anyone one who suffers from this Neurological Disorder. For the patients whom I had had eh pleasure of gaining information on this condition.
It becomes a journal of triumph as well as journal of despair. Before, I delved into this diagnosed condition. I would like to extend my humbleness for the brain one who has not allowed this medical condition to deter their path in life, or for the one who had to adjust their lifestyle.
