How do you fight an enemy you can’t see? How do you let IT be? ~ Why do I have to be on guard 24/7? Sometimes I think I’m ready to go to heaven. ~ The enemy inside is strong. Sometimes, the fight goes all wrong. ~ Cookies, cakes and pies – oh my. ~Continue reading “The Enemy Inside”

Run Away
I want to run away but where would I go? Maybe that way, in the direction of the crow? Will Chico come with me? Does he want to flee? Should I chase the moon and stars? Do you think I’d really get far?
2 minute plan
Alarm clock screaming in my ear; Come on! Just 2 more minutes. Smack. Smack! Just 2 more minutes. I can finish my dream in 2 more minutes. Cheekie can wait just 2 more minutes. My bed is soft and comfortable. Just 2 more minutes. Do I really have to go to work? Just 2 moreContinue reading “2 minute plan”

It brings tears. I close my eyes and breathe again. “hi, dad. Thanks for visitingContinue reading “A scent that stirs”
Here comes the rain
It’s raining here. There? No. Only 3 miles separate. ~~~~~ Only 3 miles separate where I live from my best friend. It can be raining at my house and not hers. And vise versa.
Insides are falling out
Written: 4-2-2023 As I sit here on the couch, it feels like my insides are falling out. Chico doesn’t care if I’m a grouch. Come on menopause! Can you hurry up and get out? Time sitting here isn’t waisted. Laundry in the washer. E-mails checked. Surveys answered. Think I earned a quarter. Not moving forContinue reading “Insides are falling out”
Conversion of desire
Desire bubbles in the brain – like a pot of boiling water. Desire fuels the imagination. Words swirl like storms raging inside a chaotic brain. Desire stirs the soul from tired dark places. Shining light. Blinding the senses. Desire pumps blood to places long dormant. Bringing your frontal cortex to life. Desire drives harder thanContinue reading “Conversion of desire”
I WILL use you
I tried my best to beat my thoughts. But they came raging back. I tried my best to cage my thoughts. But they broke through the bars. I tried my best to strangle my thoughts. They gave me false hope. I tried my best to erase my thoughts. They kept feeding me words. I triedContinue reading “I WILL use you”
Don’t try this at home
Silly goose. Tired. Feet dragging. Passenger. Rolled off mower laughing.
