So Below
Oh what a trial computers are, yet we cannot live without them. Their bits, bytes, drivers, apps, to most, as magical as a unicorn. Like people, get filled with junk, catch viruses like an alien BEM. We try to tend them carefully, but in time they grow old, forlorn. Like pets, love them, invest in […]
Entropy Increases, Ya Boy Howdy
~~~~~ Why don’t they come haul his ass away? He gets crazier with everything he say. He lives for himself, all alone in his own head. It wouldn’t matter if we all dropped dead. He never ever does the things he oughta. Though I’m sure he would hug his daughter. He’s a senile, demented nut […]
Balancing Act
~~~~~ Where is the light we keep in the window That guides each of us all the way home? What time we ponder wait and wonder; Will our answers ever remain unknown? How can the illness and greed of the few Control the course all our lives will take? With the time now to think […]
Whorled Enough and Time

Answer to an Unasked Question
~~~~~ Passionate Pacific my daily inspiration, sunlight, sand and surf. Murmured messages wash on shore, chased by crashing waves. Warm strand, moonlit, twinkling on the swells, reflecting earth, Wind, water, weather form transient art, the sea gives and takes. Humbled by such vastness of ocean, rolling beyond the horizon, This and more besides to stir […]
No Guarantee
~~~~~ Blow it up or blow it down, No point us hanging around. We start again as a beginner If we lived as saint or sinner. Still and all, it’s been before; Not by us, so now our chore. Some craven but some brave, Dumb, brazen sum’s a grave. What it is, not bad nor […]

~~~~~ Wrote these words To pen a thought about a time now unknown, far in the past or the future. I struggled when I found the past too obscure, the future becoming now in each moment that passes. Might as well try reading braille. The more that I thought the […]
