Falling Behind
~~~~~ It makes me want to return to a time, years ago, before PC’s and smart phones. After every computer in the house, but one has crashed, died, given up the ghost, what should I do now? Install new technology: television and internet upgrades, we hope. As age advances, with aches and pains, these challenges […]
Begin, Become, Begone
~~~~~ Speaking now of old friends or of lovers from long ago. Where the closest may be lost or somehow replaced by others along the way. Yet, life continues along, with us or without us. Do you believe, perchance, when you are finally gone the universe vanishes. This, despite evidence to the contrary, science, perhaps, […]
Not As Ourselves

Plain or Fancy Inside
Reversal of Fortune ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ Some things and some people are quite plain on the outside. Still, might hide glory within. Or, a plain face may hide evil.

In Our Youth
Light in Darkness ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ We each bring our truest selves when we start, yet, we’re told we learn what we’ve forgotten.

Which Way to Fall
~~~~~ Come then, let us dance and sing to the swift strumming of guitars. Let us play and caper about, like children or mad fools who share a place that we have left behind. It’s not a land you’re invited to. You left long ago. You say not. It’s within your denial, harmony walks along […]
