It was almost twilight, but the barbecue was still in full swing. The big guy had flown in from D.C. just for the golf and barbecue after. He’d always had a nose for jodhoeing, his specialty actually, and the atmosphere today was ripe for it.

All of his cronies were there, the lawyer, the senator, the secretary, all ready to do what they thought had to be done. More than likely, the big guy was about to put them all in jeopardy again, but the money seemed worth it. Little did they all know he would stay on top and scatter them as scapegoats.

Voicing their concerns as the judicial system loomed, the big guy reassured them with a “only if necessary, it’ll never happen, guys”, a quote they usually put out of their minds while watching bank accounts grow.

Half in, half out

Part white, part black

Some lightness, some despair

I feel it all sitting here

Trivial things pass by quickly

I dismiss them

I dismiss colors in the world.

Tiny sparkles fall

Covering ordinary

Decorate with white

This is my house

Lights are on

Everyone’s home

Except me

I am never invited because I control this house. I light the lights. I lock the doors. I make it quiet or noisy. My family are permanent residents, never leaving unless I wish it. I told them to love me, they didn’t listen. Now I have control, forever.

🎄🎄🎄

Feeling listless as I see the spread of Christmas fare strewn in the living room

Waiting to feel the boundless energy to lift weightless imagined burdens that keep me from opening the first box

Delving into my memories and the senseless repetition of unachievable forgetting

Wishing to become fearless, face the future, moving in a new direction or

Wallowing in needless frustration with what is gone and start anew

Living is never flawless, so I open the box, sort the good thoughts and find a temporary future.

This is from Twitter and so sad, as we here in the US are protected by vaccines. There are ongoing debates about whether or not to vaccinate your babies and children. What do you think? These numbers are phenomenal.

Remain vigilant

Never say we cannot change

Earth is ours to hold

Your hat and coat laying there

Familiar case packed on the stair

We tried and failed, I feel bereaved

Only a still-life after you leave

Emptiness overpowers me

With a future I don’t care to see

Please come back, fold your arms around

Feel again the happiness surround.
