Tiny gray lizard practicing calisthenics on the concrete wall. A flash forward then a stall for five pushups. Climbing the tower and then Descending the other side. What a way to start the day.
Night With You
You slept with your hand on the small of my back. Possession, comfort, solace I felt them all too.
The Weeping Willow
The Weeping Willow Shade covers us from the canopy above. A cool breeze causes the leaves to rustle softly. The long billowing branches sway. The sweet whisper of your voice, long past, is carried on the wind.
4:44 am
I woke up this morning at 4:44. Normally, I would have rolled over and gone back to sleep, but somehow this number jolted me. I felt compelled to see if this was an auspicious number of some sort. Earlier in the week I had read somewhere that when numbers appear in groups of 3 it's… Continue reading 4:44 am

I couldn't tell you the name of the book, or… Continue reading A New Word – Deliciate
Waking Up In A Strange Place
This morning I woke up in strange, but oh, so comfortable bed in a tiny adobe casita in Taos, New Mexico. As I sit at this table Santa Fe style table to write, outside my window is a cherry tree, just months ago, filled with blossoms now scattered with the tiniest, unripened cherries. Under it… Continue reading Waking Up In A Strange Place
Brave and Crazy
I put myself into self-isolation on February 24, 2020. Since that date, I think I have left my house seven times. Mostly I took trips to the grocery store to pick-up groceries curbside. I've gone through drive-through fast food a few times and twice, went on a drive, just to get out of the house.… Continue reading Brave and Crazy
