List #12: Questions I've Been Pondering Lately
1. Why is space so incredibly vast? Is it just a mall with billions of empty stores? I mean, really, what's it being used for?
2. Would quitting my job be cowardly or brave?
3. How is it possible that so many Americans support Trump?
4. Am I agnostic or atheist or just someone with no desire to own the "truth"?
5. Where can I move that's not all guns, Trump, and Jesus?
6. How am I going to find the motivation to go on a diet? I don't want to break up with food.
7. When should I get a new cat? Should I force myself to look in more than one

Let not your heart be heavy
Through life we will be tested by somethings, that we may not see it coming our way. BUT yet it doesn't mean that you keep an blind eye close, to really not see that is before you. For that will be your time to become aware that you have to learn, some lessons that you thought you didn't have to learn. How to navigate through the process of the nonsense, that will surely bring you down. For sure life wasn't meant to be easy, when you know that it's hard to find the right one for you. FOR sure life is a mind game of chance or even leaps of your own faith at times. Which makes your thoughts run...

Precipice Trilogy
life is dangerous
when death is calling
and you chase yourself
to answer
death is dangerous
the seductive void
when life is giving you
too much something
Indecision
is one foot in the grave
oops, don't trip
when death is calling
and you chase yourself
to answer
death is dangerous
the seductive void
when life is giving you
too much something
Indecision
is one foot in the grave
oops, don't trip

You Want To Join Me In A Portrait?
Jennifer lets Rose come out.
After dropping her robe, Rose saw Eric.
She smiled while Jennifer painted.

I hope to see you there
Gentle air fills dying lungs
Under blue skies and bitter chill
Folk tunes playing through blown out speakers
Nervousness fills aching bones
Picking lint off of an expensive sweater without breaking eye contact
How did I get here?
Years of dreaming was never enough
Restlessness and addiction kept me stuck
Until the final push from the one who promised to never let me fall
An open door to the visions that have flooded my brain since adolescence
A bigger view caused for an emotional afternoon
But who am I to...
Under blue skies and bitter chill
Folk tunes playing through blown out speakers
Nervousness fills aching bones
Picking lint off of an expensive sweater without breaking eye contact
How did I get here?
Years of dreaming was never enough
Restlessness and addiction kept me stuck
Until the final push from the one who promised to never let me fall
An open door to the visions that have flooded my brain since adolescence
A bigger view caused for an emotional afternoon
But who am I to...

Just shut up and listen
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ We all have been in a situation for one reason or another, 🤨 that we let what we say cause you to act a certain way not be heard. 🤔 Whether you are wrong or right in what you think and say to someone else, I say that to say this which ever the way you may take what it is I'm about to say to you. 🤨 When you don't agree with what someone say to you, how do you respond for do you begin yelling and cursing, 😠 yet you still not listening and thinking that they are wrong, for speaking to you in a calm...

When People Don’t Talk
When people don’t talk
The space between words widens
What’s left unsaid takes on new meaning
All the things I thought you meant
Now mean…something
And I’m left to fill in the blanks myself
Because you choose not to say anything
Maybe you think you’re protecting me
Or you’re ashamed
Or you’re angry
Or you don’t want me to have feelings for you
You might have misunderstood something I’ve said
Flawed humans mirror flawed humans
We’re all clinging to the same life raft
So we tango
But we...
The space between words widens
What’s left unsaid takes on new meaning
All the things I thought you meant
Now mean…something
And I’m left to fill in the blanks myself
Because you choose not to say anything
Maybe you think you’re protecting me
Or you’re ashamed
Or you’re angry
Or you don’t want me to have feelings for you
You might have misunderstood something I’ve said
Flawed humans mirror flawed humans
We’re all clinging to the same life raft
So we tango

Heads your dead
I have two choices
Should I pull the plug or not?
I should flip a coin
Should I pull the plug or not?
I should flip a coin

devil's 2 step
would you walk willingly
right back into the devil's embrace
knowing intimately...what awaits
allow yourself to be held...again
locked in his acidic chains
feel the familiar slice
of dagger breath across your neck
still healing from the last tango
from which you barely escaped
would you...
could you let yourself be led
...eyes wide open...
into the darkest corner
of his deepest dungeon
because hell hides nothing
once you know...you will always know
& the curl of his jagged claws
as they sink...
right back into the devil's embrace
knowing intimately...what awaits
allow yourself to be held...again

Reflective moment
Sitting here in depressed like contemplation.
Wondering about the next step forward.
To the future of who, I want to be, & become.
How I'm gonna achieve it.
Is a repeating pattern by now.
I'm still taking it one step at a time.
Adventure by definition.
Leads where no one knows.
I recall a story of an 1st nation elder.
Talking to a small child.
About the two wolves each of carry inside.
One evil and nasty, other kind and gentle.
The elder says they battle and fight.
Till only one remains.
Which one is...

Time
Time is a strange thing.
Like when your having fun.
It fly's bye, Oh so fast.
It slows down exponential.
When your tyre's are running flat.
It doesn't matter. That you've got a spare.
Your stuck and that's that.
Patience, carm & confidence.
Till the slow time passes bye.
I'll know when it over.
When time speeds up again.
No doubt this is cyclic
Time will drift by slow and fast.
Time and time again.
Swinging like a pendulum.
Equilibrium passing bye.
As...
