2024-05-20 Monday Morning Play-by-Play, Not to Worry, I’m Ok

I spend the first two or three hours of my day on chores and good life stuff. By the time I’m done, I’m too tired to think about anything except how my sleep was shit and how the nightmare that woke me up just before 6:AM made me gasp for air. A doozie I psychoanalyze…

2024-05-14 A Question of Sustainability and Sanity

Today’s Q&A is all about The Good Life. My good life, the preservation of the preciousness of it, and a nod to all the time and effort that’s already been put in. I could be talking about my life or the literary journal I co-founded five years ago. The Good Life review. To say one…

2024-05-12 Let’s Waste Time…

If I had a therapist she might say I shouldn’t pose an existential question with five minutes left in our session. Yeah. Probably not. But since I have endless time and space here, with my alternative therapeutic method, I can continue to contemplate questions like “what next?” and “what’s my purpose.. here, on Earth?” as…

Ok. Sometimes you just kinda gotta open up the shuffle to ALL the music in the music library. Maybe for you that’s the entirety of what Spotify, Amazon Music or Pandora have to offer. But just like opening Pandora’s box, you don’t know what will be released and the results can be wild and most…

And with you and you, and with us all, my friends. It’s as good of a day as any to chase that new shiny. For those who have been following along for 14 years or the last 7 years or only the past month. I’ve been hunting answers to existential questions disguised as simple musings…

2024-05-01 Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin…

Welcome to May. May 1st. Mayday, May poles, and May baskets for those who believe in the magic of history and tradition. Mayday is probably one of those historical traditions that was lost with my parent’s generation. I have vague memories of it from my childhood, putting together baskets and leaving them on doorsteps of…

Hi! Thanks for being here! Today’s Q&A is all about self discovery. Maybe you figured out what you wanted to do with your life at age 4 and have been enjoying the ride ever since. If that’s you, this post might not be helpful. For the other 8 billion of us, it might be worth…

2024-04-19 Always halfway there…

Today’s Q&A is about pressure. As in… why I’m putting so much pressure on myself. And like most questions, it’s tightly wound with other questions, primary in this case is “Who cares?” If I never write or publish another poem in my life… who cares? If I don’t blog anymore… who cares? If I quit…
