A routine is routine A reheated cup of coffee A third of the day done A break not needed but welcome A few moments to stand by the fence On my side a lumber mill On the other side the trees On my side a parking lot On the other side the river On my… Read More Chain Link Meditation
Once there was a promise, not made by me. It tore at the very fabric of a being, like undoing a single scrap of cloth from a patchwork quilt. It was an easy rip, the thread was already frayed, even cut in some spots. But then what? Nothing. Busy hands that were busy tearing got… Read More The Promise
I’ve been writing a lot lately in the area of poetry, love, relationships in general, and life as it is. I’ve written about people, places, things that I love, etc. But now what?

Yes it’s goofy, it’s nerdy, it’s surprising in a way, it’s slightly imposing depending on how you look at it, and it flows… Read More Different Name, Same Dude
I became a carpenter because it was the right time, I suppose. The job I was at had stalled out, no growth and constant monotony triggering my depression as soon as I woke up every day. It was an opportunity for better things. Better health, better work, better skills, better money, better life. I had… Read More The Length From The Earth
I’m dropping the things that take time and precious energy, and don’t give anything back.… Read More Sober
Brain: Download The Cure. Me: Cool. Which songs? Brain: All of them. Me: Fair enough. The girl with pink hair at table 7 keeps looking at me, I think…..oh well. My lager, my laptop and my girlfriend are on my mind like a Great Wall she’d have to carve through if she really wants to… Read More The Cure For This Evening
