Moments. All we know are moments. Sometimes we read something unreal, fiction that touches us. It perfectly captures a moment that resonates with us. All art is about moments. The artist, an emotional documenter, captures a singular moment in word, image, photograph or song. We think in moments. We remember in moments. Think back to […]
January 31, you have arrived yet again. Feels earlier every year. One of my goals this year was to write more. Sadly, I forgot that I have so, so little to say. So little to write about. But I wanted to get one post a month up here, so here is this one. And it’s […]
I can’t breathe. I’m sucking wind like crazy. Sweat is dripping down my face, I took off my hat to cool off more but that short, fleeting relief is in the past. I look up, ahead and up. The trail continues up, up, up, no leveling out in sight. I’ve got a heavy pack on […]
Driving up Whitsett again. It’s only been 2 years or so…a year and half since we last spoke - but it seems much, much longer. So much has happened to me since. But I drive past her old apartment, the one I first saw her again after a year apart, the one I helped her […]

JM @LE @cephyn hmm I have never been good at playing it safe. It bores the […]
Sometimes there is just a perfect moment. I never even know it’s happening, I never realize it until the time has long since past, the memory faded away. I don’t ever consciously think of it - and then, something will bring it flooding back and it spurs a feeling of lost contentment so strong that […]
The Bill of Rights, contrary to popular belief, does not guarantee a trial by a “jury of your peers” - that stems more from a few lines in the Magna Carta (that actually don’t really even apply). The text of the 6th Amendment reads, ” In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right […]
It is a still, windless night - almost airless. I toss and turn, avoiding my back, wishing the air felt cold. But it does not. It has been dark for hours, but the sun has not yet set beyond my flesh. It burns like a tortured soul.
I take some pills. I was out today, having […]
Today marks 40 years since the greatest engineering feat in all of humankind - putting man on the moon with the Apollo 11 mission. I mean no hyperbole - today’s cell phones are orders of magnitude more powerful than the computers used during the Apollo missions. They really did achieve something that could have been […]
July 4th weekend. Independence Day, for those of us in the USA. How many of us really think about that anymore? What it really means? I don’t know. Mostly we use it as an excuse to drink, grill, eat and blow stuff up. But then again - maybe that’s exerting our freedoms in a very […]
