Fluttering wings in its last breath on grainy sand, a seagull sends a final greeting to his colony, warning them of the small predator holding a BB gun.

I’m with Charlie. Celebrating six years of being cancer free this month, I encourage everyone to get back into the routine of going in for regular health checkups.🥳

I sit watching the little creatures scurry up and down the stones, only wishing I could be them, just for a moment, long enough to escape this dungeon cave. Circumstances all my own doing, landed me here in this dismal resort. “If only” repeats in my mind like an old sad song full of guilt and longing refrains of regret. I somehow, absentmindedly, chose this, my subconscious ruled for once, knowing the outcome beforehand. It won’t be long now, darkness will fill the space, almost a relief to be done with it all.

longevity of the song

evanescence of your trill

resonates on leaves

even blistered bark on trees

derives comfort from sweet notes

I exclaim the destiny of the bald eagle as he reflects upon the state of democracy with a broken wing. He languishes in disappointment and is astonished at the actions of the ones who created him as a symbol.

“Don’t come any closer!” Julie’s hand was already shaking and now starting to sweat. She held the hot pan higher, hoping not to drop it–it was heavier than she thought the cast iron skillet to be. The warning didn’t seem to faze the fierce feline creature looking ready to pounce. The cat’s arched back and whiskers indicated she wasn’t about to retreat. After the long haired menace had jumped up and backed her into the corner, Julie grabbed the nearest thing to a weapon she could find. Now it was a battle of wills over the plate of fish sitting on the counter.

“I put fake brick wallpaper over a real brick wall, just so I’d be the only one who knew. People come over and I’m gonna say, “Go ahead, touch it…it feels real.”
